Frequently Asked Questions
What are some things I should look out for when purchasing organic goods?
Look for USDA-certified organic labels. This certification means that the product is certified organic by USDA. You will find the USDA Organic seal on all boxes, cartons and cans.
When you shop for meat, ensure that it comes from cows who are fed organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle have 4 stomach compartments: Rumen, reticulum and omasum. To be labeled '100% organic, all animal parts must be organically nourished.
Chicken should be only purchased from chickens raised on organic feed, and not given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens can eat both plants as well as animals. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive tract composed of a crop, proventriculus, gizzard, small intestine, large intestine, and anus.
When buying dairy products, ensure they come from cows fed 100% organically grown feed. Like ruminants and dairy cows, they have four stomach compartments. The fourth stomach, or the udder is where you get milk.
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 marked "95% organic" to indicate that 95 percent of the pork's feed is organic.
What are the health benefits of organic farming
Organic farming allows farmers to produce food using only natural methods. Farmers don't have worry about whether harmful pesticides are affecting their crops or animals.
Organic farming also permits for the use of natural fertilizers. These fertilizers help to grow healthy plants and help to reduce the amount of chemical waste produced.
Organic farming can also be environmentally friendly. To recycle nutrients back into soil, farmers often resort to composting. This reduces the risk of pollution and helps conserve precious resources.
Organic farming also helps the environment by increasing crop yields. This is because organic agriculture uses less water in the growing season.
Organic production methods also mean that farmers receive higher prices for their produce. Consumers who become more aware of the dangers of pesticides and chemical fertilizers demand healthier foods.
This leads to a greater demand for organic food products. For these reasons, organic farming is becoming increasingly popular.

What you should know about organic food
Organic foods come from plants and animals without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or additives. They are made without genetic engineering and the application of ionizing radiance. It must not contain any artificial colours, flavour enhancers, flavor enhancers, and preservatives. It should not include genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
In 1845, Justus von Liebig, a chemist, first coined the term "organic", meaning "life-giving", to describe the properties and characteristics of manure. Most people associate organic with food production. Organic simply means the product is made from only naturally occurring substances such proteins, carbohydrate, and minerals.
Over the past decade, organic products have seen a dramatic increase in consumption. According to recent statistics, about 50% of the global population consumes at-least one organic product every day. This figure is on the rise and it is predicted to grow to 70%, 88%, and 90% in 2020.
There are many reasons why consumers choose organic products. Some like the taste, others prefer them because they believe organic produce is healthier, while some think organic farming is more environmentally friendly. But, non-organic products can be a good choice because there are ethical concerns over the treatment and welfare of farm workers.
