Frequently Asked Questions
What are some of the most popular organic products in your country?
Today organic food is the fastest-growing sector. However, we still have a lot to learn from our roots.
Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer and better for the environment. They also make it more affordable for consumers.
But they tend to be more expensive. That is why we developed the Organic Food Index. We wanted the ability to identify which foods are currently most popular and whether these trends have changed.
The results show that organic food is becoming increasingly popular. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.
According to USDA, organic food production increased by 10% only last year. Organic food now makes up 9% U.S. agriculture output.
While organic food is certainly gaining ground, it seems that it is still an expensive choice for consumers. The average retail price for organic food is almost twice that of conventional foods, according to the Organic Trade Association (OTA).
Despite this, organic food is growing at a faster rate than any other food segment. You'll notice that organic food consumption has increased steadily since 2009.
According to OTA, organic products sold in supermarkets grew 14% between 2010-2011.
This is because of consumer demand for healthier products, which explains the rise in organic food sales across all age categories.
However, the younger generation is leading the charge in choosing organic food. Millennials have twice the likelihood of buying organic food as baby boomers. And young adults under 35 years old account for 25% of all organic food purchases.
Is organic meat healthier?
If you have been paying attention for long enough, you will probably know the answer. But here's the rub, organic food is becoming more popular while conventional food continues to fall out of favour.
Organic foods continue rising in popularity because they are healthier. In addition to being safer for our health, organic products also help the environment by reducing pollution and waste.
However, there are also two sides to this coin. Organic produce takes longer to grow, and it requires more resources. This means organic food will cost more than its non-organic counterpart.
Organic meats are generally more expensive than conventionally raised animals. However, there are ways to reduce these costs without sacrificing quality.
One way to save money is to buy locally. Locally grown fruits and veggies help to lower prices because farmers get incentives to grow good crops.
You can also look for deals to reduce costs. There are often discounts offered when purchasing organics.
A third way to save money on meat consumption is to eat less. Meat production can be costly due to the feed needed to raise livestock.
There are many reasons organic foods are better for our bodies and the environment, but we need to be mindful of the cost.
What are organic foods?
Organic produce is free from synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, sewage sludge and confinement feeding. No growth hormones are used, and there is no animal testing. These crops can naturally grow, so no chemicals are used by farmers to combat pests or weeds.
Organic farming methods also help to preserve soil quality, reduce erosion, and conserve water resources. Organics contain more nutrients than regular food and are therefore better for our overall health. Organic products tend to be higher in fiber and lower fat than conventionally produced foods.
Organic foods are better for us.
According to the Environmental Working Group's recent report on pesticide residues within foods, organic fruits & vegetables contained nearly half of the pesticides that non-organic varieties. They found that organic apples contained eight times fewer pesticides than non-organic apples, while organic strawberries were four times cleaner than their conventional counterparts.
Some studies also suggest that eating organic food helps reduce your exposure to toxic metals, such as mercury and lead. A study concluded that children who ate organic meat had 33% lower levels of blood lead than those who didn’t. Another study concluded conventional fish consumption should be stopped by pregnant women because it contains high levels of mercury.
Organic food seems to be safer than the non-organic. Experts recommend that you choose fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible to lower your chance of developing cancer or other diseases.

How To
Five Reasons to Purchase Organic Products
Organic foods are free from pesticides and synthetic fertilisers. They contain no genetically modified organisms (GMOs) or irradiated ingredients. Their production processes do not include sewage or industrial solvents. During the growth process, food is kept clean from any contamination. It is free of artificial preservatives and additives. It does not contain hormones or antibiotics. They are also made in conditions that maintain their nutritional value and freshness for longer times.
- Health benefits. Organic produce contains fewer chemicals than nonorganic produce. This means that organic produce is less likely cause allergic reactions and sensitivities. This also means that you are consuming less toxins and carcinogens.
- Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without synthetic fertilizer and pesticides requires very little water. Because conventional farming requires so much energy, organic farms are usually located far from places where pollution is high. This helps reduce pollution.
- Sustainability. Organic farming relies more on soil fertility than chemical fertilizers. This results is healthier soils with higher organic matter. Soil health improves when farmers rotate crops and leave land fallow periodically. When farm animals eat only grasses and grains raised without any added hormones or antibiotics, they develop strong immune systems.
- Taste. Due to being picked at peak quality, vegetables and fruits are often bland. Organic produce is sweeter and richer because it was harvested at the peak of its ripeness.
- Nutrition. Many conventional processed foods contain harmful substances like BPA and GMOs. Avoid these harmful chemicals by eating whole foods, such as meat, eggs and fish, seeds, legumes, fruits, vegetables, herbs, and beans.
