Frequently Asked Questions
Does organic mean that it is not sprayed with pesticides?
Organic food is chemical-free and grown without pesticides. This means organic food is free from pesticides and fertilizers.
Organic produce contains more nutrients and is healthier than conventionally manufactured foods, as it does not contain any harmful additives.
The USDA National Organic Program (NOP) requires farmers to follow strict guidelines for growing crops certified as organic.
These guidelines include soil preparation and crop rotation, pest management, water conservation, as well as harvesting practices.
Organic farming also promotes healthy ecosystems which are beneficial to wildlife and natural habitats.
What are the things to look for when purchasing organic products?
Look for USDA-certified organic labels. This guarantee that the product has met specific standards set forth by USDA. Look for the "USDA Organic" seal on packages, boxes, cartons, cans, and jars.
When you shop for meat, ensure that it comes from cows who are fed organic feed. Ruminants are cattle that chew their cud. Ruminant cattle have four stomach compartments: rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. To be labeled '100% organic, all animal parts must be organically nourished.
When buying chicken, make sure it comes only from chickens fed 100% organic feed and never given antibiotics. Chickens can eat both animal and plant food. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive system that includes a crop (proventriculus), gizzard and small intestine.
You should ensure you only buy dairy products made from milk that has been produced by cows who have been fed 100% organically grown food. Just like ruminants, dairy cows also have four stomachs. Milk comes from the fourth stomach compartment--the udder.
Check the label when purchasing livestock of any other type to find out what percentage was used in the animal's diet. One example is pork that may be labeled '95% Organic'. This means that 95 percent came from organic sources.
Which organic products are most in demand?
Today, organic food is the fastest growing industry. Even though we have come a long ways from our roots there is still plenty of room for growth.
Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer, more sustainable, and cheaper for consumers.
But they also tend to be higher priced. The Organic Food Index was created to address this. We wanted to know which foods are popular today and whether trends are changing.
These findings show that organic foods are becoming more popular. The number of Americans shopping for organic food grew by nearly 50% between 2011 and 2012.
The USDA reported that organic production rose by 10% in the last year. Organic food now makes up 9% U.S. agriculture output.
Organic food is certainly on the rise but consumers are still not able to afford it. The average retail price for organic food is almost twice that of conventional foods, according to the Organic Trade Association (OTA).
Organic food is growing faster that any other sector of the food industry. If you look closely at the data, it will be apparent that organic food consumption has steadily increased since 2009.
According to OTA, organic products sold in supermarkets grew 14% between 2010-2011.
This is due to consumer demand for healthier food, which explains why organic foods sales are rising across all age groups.
The younger generation is however leading the charge for organic food. Millennials have twice the likelihood of buying organic food as baby boomers. The 25% of organic food purchase made by younger adults below 35 are made up of young adults.

They are not made with sewage sludge, industrial solvents, or any other chemical substances. During its growth, the food's natural environment remains unaffected by contamination. It does not contain artificial preservatives or additives. There is no use of antibiotics or hormones.

- Health benefits. Organic produce contains less chemicals than nonorganic. This means that it is less likely to cause allergies. It also means that you consume less toxic chemicals and carcinogens.
- Eco-friendliness. Organic produce is low in water consumption. Organic farms are typically located far away form areas of high pollution and where conventional growth is difficult because it requires so much effort. This helps reduce pollution.
- Sustainability. Organic farming relies more on soil fertility than chemical fertilizers. This results is healthier soils with higher organic matter. The rotation of crops and the letting of land fallow can improve soil health. Farm animals develop strong immune systems when they eat only grasses/grains raised without adding hormones or antibiotics.
- Taste. Conventional fruits and vegetables often taste bland because they're picked at peak ripeness, then shipped long distances to grocery stores. Organic produce is sweeter and richer because it was harvested at the peak of its ripeness.
