Frequently Asked Questions
Does organic mean it is pesticide-free?
Organic food is organic and free of pesticides. This means there is little or no exposure to chemicals such as fertilizers and herbicides.
Because organic produce does not contain harmful additives it has more nutrients that conventionally produced foods.
Farmers must follow strict guidelines to grow organic crops under the USDA National Organic Program (NOP).
These guidelines cover soil preparation, crop rotation and pest control. They also include water conservation and harvesting techniques.
Organic farming methods also benefit wildlife and natural environments.
What is inorganic food?
Organic food is produced without the use of artificial fertilizers and pesticides. These chemicals can be harmful for your health.
Organic food is free from harmful substances like pesticides and herbicides. These chemicals can be dangerous for both humans and animals.
Inorganic food can include meat, fish eggs, buttermilk cheese, buttermilk, yogurt, honey grains, vegetables, fruits spices, and herbs.
The term organic refers to the way an agricultural product is grown. Organic farming employs natural methods and soil amendments for growing crops. Conventional agriculture uses pesticides or fertilizers.
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), must ensure that organic food meets strict standards. According to the National Organic Program Standards, all certified organic food must be free from prohibited materials such as antibiotics, growth hormones, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and industrial solvents. Additionally, organic food must be raised without toxic chemicals, petroleum-based fertilizers, sewage sludges, or ionizing radiation.
What are the top organic products?
The fastest-growing industry is organic food. 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 and better for the environment. They also make it more affordable for consumers.
But they tend to be more expensive. We created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to find out which foods are most popular with shoppers today, and whether these trends are changing.
The results showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.
According to the USDA, organic production increased by 10% last year alone. Organic food now accounts for 9% of U.S. agricultural output.
Organic food is growing in popularity but is still expensive. According to the Organic Trade Association (OTA), average retail prices for organic food are almost double those of conventional alternatives.
However, organic food is growing more quickly than any other part of the food market. You'll notice that organic food consumption has increased steadily since 2009.
In fact, according to OTA, the volume of organic products sold in supermarkets grew by 14% between 2010 and 2011.
This is because consumers are looking for healthier foods. Organic food sales have been increasing in all age groups.
However, the younger generation is leading the charge in choosing 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.
What should I be looking out for when shopping organic products
USDA-certified organic labels are desirable. This guarantees that the product meets certain USDA standards. You will find the USDA Organic seal on all boxes, cartons and cans.
When shopping for meat ensure it comes only from cows that are fed 100% organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle can be found with four stomach compartments: the rumen, the reticulum, omasum, abomasum and omasum. If the cow is to be labeled "100% organic", all of its parts must have been organically fed.
Buy chicken from only organic chickens that have been fed 100% organic food and are not given antibiotics. Chickens can eat both animal and plant food. The digestive tract of an omnivorous chicken is composed of a crop and proventriculus, gizzard as well as small intestine, large intestinale, and anus.
When buying dairy products, ensure they come from cows fed 100% organically grown feed. Just like ruminants have four stomachs, dairy cows have four. 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. For example, pork may be labelled '95% organic.' This means 95 percent of the pig's feed came from organic sources.
How can you tell if your produce is organic?
These labels will help you ensure that organic produce is purchased.
USDA Organic Certified – This certification is issued by USDA to ensure that the product is 100% organic.
Certified Naturally Grown – Produce that meets strict organic standards but has not received USDA certification.
Pastured/Freerange - Products made from animals who graze freely and are outdoors.
These labels are used to indicate that the product meets specified criteria.
- No synthetic fertilizers or pesticides
- No genetically altered organisms
- Animals are never given antibiotics
- No hormones are ever given to the animal
- No growth-promoting drug
- No feed additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No irradiation
- There is no sewage sludge
- No GMOs
- No antibiotics ever given
- No hormones ever given
- No growth-promoting drugs
- No feed-additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No sewage sludge, if it's not a GMO
- No irradiation

What is organic meat?
Organic meat is organic food that has been grown naturally without the use of pesticides, artificial fertilizers or hormones. Organic meat is also a guarantee that the animals weren’t fed any genetically altered feed. Because there are no harmful chemicals in the meat, it is safe for human consumption.
Organic meats are healthier for our environment. Eating organic foods helps reduce pollution in the environment, such as rivers and lakes. We can also help wildlife by eating organic foods. Organic farmers do not often use toxic chemicals that can kill birds or insects.
Locally purchasing organic meats is the best way to make sure you are eating healthy and organic meats. Local shopping helps keep more money in your community than it does out of state. Local businesses often pass down savings to customers when they shop locally. In addition, buying local keeps jobs right here in America instead of sending them overseas.

Although organic foods tend to be more expensive than regular ones, prices can vary depending on where they are located. There are many factors that affect the cost of organic food. One factor is whether there are enough land available for organic farming. Another is the cost of inputs and labour needed for organic cultivation.
