Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference in organic and non-organic foods?
Organic food is free from pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. It can also be grown without irradiation or genetic modification. Organic farming practices improve soil health and water quality as well as animal welfare.
Inorganic foods are grown with pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and sewage sludge. Radiation is used to treat irradiated food; biological engineering techniques are used to create genetically modified organisms (GMO).
The term "natural", often used interchangeably to mean "organic," is frequently used. But, "natural" does not necessarily refer to organic. Some products labeled "natural" may also contain synthetic ingredients.
Organic produce is often more nutritious than conventional produce, as the soil has fewer pesticides and harmful chemicals. Organic farmers also don't use synthetic fertilizers or hormones, pesticides, or antibiotics.
What are organic beauty products?
Organic Beauty Products are natural products without synthetic chemicals such as petroleum, parabens, phenoxyethanol, phthalates, and artificial preservatives. These ingredients are found in most conventional beauty products, including cosmetics, perfumes, shampoos, etc.
Organic beauty products do not require animal testing and are free of genetically modified organisms (GMO).
The USDA defines organic as "a system for production that fosters recycling of resources". It has been used over the years to describe foods grown without pesticides.
There has been a rise in demand for ecofriendly beauty products over the years due to the negative effects of chemical chemicals on our skin.
These include allergies, cancer, skin irritation, hormonal imbalance, early aging, and skin irritation.
Organic beauty companies are committed to creating healthy and safe products for consumers while protecting the environment.
What is an organic food producer?
Organic food producers create products that are grown without pesticides and chemical fertilizers. These foods include fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products.
Organic food production is only possible on farms where the crops are grown naturally. This includes soil preparation, pest control, and crop rotation.
To be organic, an agricultural product must meet the strict criteria of USDA (United States Department of Agriculture).
These guidelines ensure that consumers can access safe, wholesome, nutritious food.
Organic food offers many health benefits. From lower levels of pesticide residues, heavy metal contamination, to higher nutrient contents and better flavour, organic foods are healthier.
USDA Organic Products must have the "USDA Certified organic" label.
This certification indicates that the product meets the requirements of the National Organic Program.
Organic food is not only healthier for us, but also protects our environment.
Organic farming techniques preserve water and land. Additionally, organic farming methods help reduce greenhouse gas emission, which can lead to climate change.
Organic agriculture uses less chemicals and reduces the amount of pollution runoff.
This improves the air quality by reducing the likelihood of harmful gases like ammonia, nitrates and other pollutants building up in your atmosphere.
There are many types and varieties of organic farming.
Conventional farming refers to the use of synthetic inputs such as pesticides and fertilizers.
Regenerative farming is the use of compost, cover crops, or green manures to improve soil health. It also encourages biodiversity.
Agroecology focuses on sustainable relationships between people, plants, and animals.
Permaculture encourages self sufficiency by designing systems that mirror nature.
Statistics
- According to a study performed by consumerreports.org, organic products, compared to non-organic products, ranged anywhere from 13 percent cheaper to 303 percent more expensive. (en.wikipedia.org)
- As for organic meat, regulations require that animals be raised in living conditions that accommodate their natural behaviours (like the ability to graze on pasture), fed 100% organic feed and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. (usda.gov)
- Brands participating in this challenge are committed to using 100 percent sustainable cotton by 2025.[5] (en.wikipedia.org)

How To
Organic foods: Are they safer and more nutritious?
Organic food is produced without chemical pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. They are grown in natural conditions and without the use of any artificial inputs like fungicides or herbicides. Crop rotation, cover crops and the use of compost animal manure, wastewater recycling, and integrated pest management (IPM) are some examples of organic farming.
In 2002, USDA National Organic Programs (NOP) were established to regulate the production and handling of organic products that are sold in the United States. The NOP regulations ensure that organic agricultural products are produced according to federal standards outlined in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Additionally, organic products must not contain prohibited substances like pesticide residues or genetically modified organisms.
Two types of certification programs are available in the United States for producers who wish to have their products labeled organic. One is for farmers and ranchers; one is for manufacturers. Both programs require annual audits of operations to verify compliance with rigorous standards. Several certifying agents offer these services, including CCOF Certified Organic Farmers & Ranchers, Quality Assurance International, and the American Grassfed Association. All three organizations provide third-party verification of farms' adherence to strict guidelines regarding environmental stewardship, labour practices, and livestock care.
The USDA's Economic Research Service estimates that organic agriculture was responsible for $4.7 billion of 2013 sales. The retail spending on organic products accounted for nearly $1.5 billion in 2013, a 23 percent increase over 2009. Groceries sales increased by 12 per cent during this time. Spending on organic produce directly increased by 29.9%, while meat, poultry eggs, and seafood spending grew only by 1%.
Organic food is more expensive, but consumers believe its quality is worth the extra cost. According to a 2015 survey conducted by Consumer Reports, 88 percent of respondents said they would pay more for organic food if it meant higher nutritional value. Another study published in Health Affairs found that people who eat organic foods are less likely to suffer health problems like cancer, diabetes, obesity, asthma, heart disease, and depression.
Although organic foods are not proven to prevent or treat certain diseases, some research suggests that they could improve overall health and reduce exposure to pesticides. According to a 2010 review of 31 studies, organically raised beef showed significantly lower levels in toxic chemicals and parasites than conventionally produced beef. A separate analysis of 11 publications from 2012 produced similar results.
According to a 2014 report by the Environmental Working Group, the incidence of foodborne disease caused by E.coli, salmonella or listeria monocytogenes, E. coli and E. coli O157H7 was lower when organic chicken, non-organic pork, beef, lamb and milk were compared. After 2006, when USDA required stricter organic standards in animal raising for human consumption, the group noted that E.coli O157 was less common among children and adults.
