How To

What You Should Know About Organic Foods

Organic foods come from plants and animals without chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or additives. They can't be genetically modified or exposed to ionizing radiation. Food must not contain artificial colours, flavour enhancers or preservatives. It must not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

When Justus von Liebig, a chemical chemist, coined "organic", which means "life-giving," to describe the properties in manure, the term "organic" was used for the first time. Most people associate organic production with food. Organic means the product has only natural substances like proteins, carbohydrates, and fats that are found in nature.

In the past decades, the consumption of organic products has grown dramatically worldwide. According to recent statistics, around 50% of the world's population consumes at least one organic product daily. This number increases constantly and is expected to reach 70%, 80%, and 90% by 2020.

There are many reasons why consumers choose organic products. Some consumers prefer organic products for the taste. Other people prefer them because organic produce is more nutritious. Still others believe organic farming is better for the environment. Some consumers choose non-organic products because of ethical concerns about farm workers' and animal treatment.

Organic foods are usually more expensive than conventional ones, although prices vary depending on countries and regions. The price of organic food is affected by several factors. The availability of suitable land for organic agriculture is one factor. Another is the cost of inputs and labour needed for organic cultivation. There are other factors such as transportation costs, marketing and taxes. The average European price for organic food is 10% lower than the regular price.

These are the main differences in organic and conventional food.
