Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference in organic and non-organic foods?

Organic food is made without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farming practices promote soil health, water quality and animal welfare.

Inorganic foods are grown with pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and sewage sludge. Radiation can be used to destroy food, while genetically modified organisms are created by biological engineering.

The term "natural" is often used interchangeably with "organic." However, natural does not necessarily mean organic. There are also products labelled "natural" which may contain synthetic ingredients.

Because organic produce contains fewer harmful chemicals, pesticides, and fertilizers than conventional produce it is more nutritious. In addition, organic farmers do not use artificial fertilizers, hormones, antibiotics, or pesticides.

What are the benefits of organic farming?

Organic farming is a way for farmers to grow food naturally without the use chemicals. Farmers do not need to worry about harmful pesticides harming their crops or animals.

Organic farming also allows for more natural fertilizers. These fertilizers aid in the growth of healthy plants as well as reducing the amount chemical waste.

Organic farming is also environmentally friendly. Many farmers use composting methods to replenish soil nutrients. This reduces pollution and preserves valuable resources.

As well as helping the environment, organic farming increases crop yields. This is because organic farming requires less water to grow the crops.

Organic production also means that farmers get higher prices for their products. Consumers who are more informed about the dangers of pesticides or chemical fertilizers will demand healthier food.

This raises the demand to produce organic food products. Organic farming is growing in popularity.

What are the top organic products?

Organic food is the fastest-growing industry today. Even though we have come a long ways from our roots there is still plenty of room for growth.

Organic products are the future. They are safer and more cost-effective for consumers.

They also tend to have higher prices. We created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to see which foods are most in demand today and how these trends are changing.

The results show that organic food is becoming increasingly popular. Between 2011 and 2012, the number of Americans who shop for organic food increased by almost 50%.

According to USDA, organic production grew by 10% last year. Organic food now makes up 9% U.S. agriculture output.

Organic food is growing in popularity but is still expensive. 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. 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 due to consumer demand for healthier food, which explains why organic foods sales are rising across all age groups.

Younger generations are choosing organic food more often than older generations. Millennials are twice more likely to purchase organic food than baby boomers. 25 percent of organic food purchases are made by young adults younger than 35.

How To

Five Reasons to Purchase Organic Products

Organic foods are free from pesticides and synthetic fertilisers. They do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or radioactive ingredients. They are not made with sewage sludge, industrial solvents, or any other chemical substances. During the growth process, food is kept clean from any contamination. It is free from artificial additives and preservatives. There are no hormones and antibiotics used. They are also made in conditions that maintain their nutritional value and freshness for longer times.

1. Health benefits. Nonorganic produce is more chemically-laden than organic. It's therefore less likely that it will cause allergies and other sensitivities. It also means you're consuming fewer toxins and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Organic produce is low in water consumption. Organic farms are located far from cities where there is a lot of pollution, because they require so much energy to grow. This helps reduce pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies on soil fertility rather than chemical fertilizers; this results in healthier soils with higher levels of organic matter. Rotating crops and allowing the soil to rest between harvests improves soil health. Farm animals develop strong immune systems when they eat only grasses/grains raised without adding hormones or antibiotics.
4. Taste. The taste of conventional fruits and veggies is often bland. This is because they are picked at the peak of ripeness. They then get shipped long distances to their destination. Organic produce tastes sweeter and more rich because it was picked when it was still young.
5. Nutrition. GMOs and BPA are common in processed foods. These harmful substances can be avoided by sticking to whole foods like meat, eggs, fish and nuts as well as seeds, beans, fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
