Organic products also have fewer additives. You're more likely to eat organic products than you are non-organic.

This helps conserve water resources and protects against erosion. Organic farms don't use toxic chemicals and require less fuel and energy.
People worry that organic foods will be more expensive than those made from conventional food. Prices will vary depending where you live. Organic apples, for example, are more expensive than regular apples.
However, organic fruit is more affordable if you compare the price of a basket of both types.
So should you go organic?
It all depends on your personality. You shouldn't bother if you don't enjoy organic food.
You can still buy organic food if your preference is for good tasting food. And since most commercial growers use chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), organic foods are safer for consumers.
Organic agriculture helps to protect the environment by conserving natural resources, and promoting biodiversity.

Is organic meat more nutritious?
If you've been paying attention for any time, you probably already know the answer to this question. Here's the problem: Organic food is becoming more sought-after, while traditional food continues to decline in popularity.
Organic foods continue to be popular because they offer a healthier alternative. Organic foods are also safer for our overall health and reduce pollution.
But there are two sides to this coin. Organic produce takes more time to grow and requires greater resources. This means organic food will cost more than its non-organic counterpart.
Organic meats are generally more expensive than conventionally raised animals. There are however ways to lower these costs without sacrificing the quality of organic meats.
Locally grown produce is a great way to save money. Locally grown fruits and veggies help to lower prices because farmers get incentives to grow good crops.
You can also look for deals to reduce costs. Organics often come with discounts.
A third way to save money on meat consumption is to eat less. Meat production can be costly due to the feed needed to raise livestock.
There are many reasons why organic food is better for our bodies and the planet, but we should be careful not to overlook the cost.

How To
Organic Foods: What You Need to Know
Organic foods are those that come from plants or animals, and do not contain any chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or additives. They are produced without genetic engineering or the application of ionizing radiation. Food must not contain artificial colours, flavour enhancers or preservatives. It should not contain genetically modified animals (GMOs).
The term "organic" was first used in 1845 when chemist Justus von Liebig coined the word "organisch" meaning life-giving, to describe the properties of manure. Most people associate organic production with food. In this context, organic means that the product contains only naturally occurring substances such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and minerals that occur in nature.
Over the past decade, organic products have seen a dramatic increase in consumption. Recent statistics show that around half of the world's population consumes at most one organic product per day. This number is rising and is expected increase to 70%, 90%, and 80% by 2020.
Organic products are preferred for many reasons. Organic produce can be preferred for its taste; others prefer them for being healthier. Some people believe organic farming to be 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.
While organic food is generally more expensive than traditional foods, prices do vary depending upon where you live. There are different factors influencing the price of organic food. One is the availability and cost of land that can be used for organic agriculture. Another factor is the price of inputs as well as labour for organic farming. Transportation costs, marketing expenses, and taxes are all factors. In Europe, for instance, the average price for organic food in Europe is 10% higher than its regular price.
