How To
What you need to know about organic foods
Organic foods are those that come from plants or animals, and do not contain any chemical pesticides, fertilizers, or additives. They can be produced without the use of genetic engineering or ionizing radiation. Food must not contain artificial colours, flavour enhancers or preservatives. It should not include 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. Nowadays, most people associate the term organic with the production of food. 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 number is rising and is expected increase to 70%, 90%, and 80% by 2020.
Organic products are preferred for many reasons. Some prefer the flavor, while others prefer them because they are healthier. Others also believe organic farming makes it more sustainable. But, non-organic products can be a good choice because there are ethical concerns over the treatment and welfare of farm workers.
Organic food tends to be more expensive that conventional foods, but prices can vary depending upon the country or region. The price of organic food is affected by several factors. One factor is whether there are enough land available for organic farming. Another is the cost for inputs and labour required to grow organic crops. There are other factors such as transportation costs, marketing and taxes. In Europe, for instance, the average price for organic food in Europe is 10% higher than its regular price.
