Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most loved organic products?

The fastest-growing industry is organic food. We've come far from our roots but there is still room for improvement.

Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer, more sustainable, and cheaper for consumers.

But they also tend to be higher priced. 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 showed that organic food is increasing in popularity. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.

According to USDA, organic production grew by 10% last year. 9% now comes from organic foods in the United States.

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 can see that organic food has been steadily increasing since 2009.

According to OTA's data, organic products sold in supermarkets grew at 14% between 2010 - 2011.

This increase reflects consumer demand for healthier foods, which explains why organic food sales are increasing 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. Young adults aged below 35 account for 25%.

Are organic meats better?

If you've been paying any attention, you likely already know the answer. Here's the problem: Organic food is becoming more sought-after, while traditional food continues to decline in popularity.

The reason why organic foods continue to rise in popularity is that they are healthier for us. Organic products are healthier for us and the environment.

However, this coin has two sides. Organic produce takes longer and requires more resources. This means that organic food costs more money than its non-organic counterpart.

Organic meats are typically higher priced than conventionally raised animals. There are however ways to lower these costs without sacrificing the quality of organic meats.

Buy local to save money. Locally grown produce helps to keep the prices down because farmers are given incentives to grow healthy crops.

You can also look for deals to reduce costs. Many organic products can be purchased at a discount.

You can also save money by eating less meat. Feeding livestock can be very expensive.

While there are many reasons organic food is better for our bodies as well as the planet, we must not forget the cost.

How can I tell if my produce has been certified organic?

How To

5 Reasons to Buy Organic Products

Organic foods are organically grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. They contain no genetically modified or irradiated food ingredients. Their production processes do not include sewage or industrial solvents. During its growth, the food's natural environment remains unaffected by contamination. It is free of preservatives as well as artificial additives. It does not contain hormones or antibiotics. In addition, they are produced under conditions that allow them to retain their nutritional value and freshness for longer periods.

1. Health benefits. Nonorganic produce is more chemically-laden than organic. This means that it is less likely to cause allergies. It also means you're consuming fewer toxins and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilizer needs very little water. Because conventional farming requires so much energy, organic farms are usually located far from places where pollution is high. That helps reduce air 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 that eat only grasses, grains and no antibiotics develop strong immune systems.
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 is more rich and sweetened because it was harvested when it was still unripe.
5. Nutrition. GMOs are harmful chemicals found in many conventional processed foods. Avoid these harmful chemicals by eating whole foods, such as meat, eggs and fish, seeds, legumes, fruits, vegetables, herbs, and beans.
