Frequently Asked Questions

What are the things to look for when purchasing organic products?

USDA-certified organic labels are recommended. This certifies that the product has met certain standards set by USDA. You will find the USDA Organic seal on all boxes, cartons and cans.

When purchasing meat, ensure it is 100% organic. Ruminants are cattle that chew their cud. Ruminant cattle are divided into four stomach compartments, the rumen and reticulum as well as the omasum and abmasum. To be labeled '100% organic, all animal parts must be organically nourished.

Make sure you only buy chicken from chicken farms that are fed organically and have never been given antibiotics. Chickens are omnivores. This means they can eat both plant and animal food. A digestive tract that is omnivorous includes a crop, proventriculus and gizzard. It also contains small intestines, large intestines, and anus.

Buy only dairy products from cows that have been fed organically grown feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. Milk comes from the fourth stomach compartment--the udder.

To find out the percent of the feed the animals received when you purchase other types livestock, be sure to read the labels. One example is pork that may be labeled '95% Organic'. This means that 95 percent came from organic sources.

Does organic mean it is pesticide-free?

Organic food is free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers. This means that organic food is often free of pesticides and fertilizers.

Because organic produce is free of harmful additives, it also has more nutrients than conventionally grown foods.

The USDA National Organic Program, (NOP), requires farmers to adhere to strict guidelines when cultivating organic crops.

These guidelines address soil preparation, crop rotations, pest control, water conservation, harvesting, and other practices.

In addition, organic farming methods promote healthy ecosystems, which benefit wildlife and natural habitats.

What are the most popular organic products?

The fastest-growing industry is organic food. There is still much to be done, even though we have come so far from our roots.

Organic products are the future. They are safer and more cost-effective for consumers.

They also tend to have higher prices. This is why we created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to determine which foods are the most popular among shoppers today and whether 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.

The USDA reports that organic production increased 10% last year. 9% now comes from organic foods in the United States.

Although organic food is gaining popularity, it appears that consumers still have to pay a premium for it. The Organic Trade Association (OTA) reports that organic food retail prices average almost double the price of conventional foods.

Organic food is growing faster that any other sector of the food industry. You can see that organic food has been steadily increasing since 2009.

According to OTA however, the volume in supermarkets of organic products grew by 14% from 2010 to 2011.

This is because consumers are looking for healthier foods. Organic food sales have been increasing in 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. The 25% of organic food purchase made by younger adults below 35 are made up of young adults.

How To

5 Reasons to Buy Organic Products

Organic food is grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. They contain no genetically modified or irradiated food ingredients. Their production processes do not include sewage or industrial solvents. During the course of its growth cycle, the natural environment of the food is protected from contamination. It is completely free from artificial preservatives, additives, and other harmful chemicals. It does not contain hormones or antibiotics. They are also grown in conditions that ensure they retain their nutritional value for longer periods of time.

1. Health benefits. Organic produce contains less chemicals than nonorganic. This means it's less likely to cause allergies and sensitivities. You also consume fewer toxic substances and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilizer needs very little water. Organic farms are located far from cities where there is a lot of pollution, because they require so much energy to grow. This reduces air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies less on chemical fertilizers and more on soil fertility. This results with healthier soils with greater organic matter. It is better for soil health to rotate crops and allow the land to fallow regularly. Farm animals develop strong immune systems when they eat only grasses/grains raised without adding hormones or antibiotics.
4. Taste. Traditional fruits and vegetables are often bland due to the fact that they are picked at peak ripeness and shipped long distances for grocery stores. Because it was picked while still unripe, organic produce is richer and more flavorful.
5. Nutrition. GMOs and BPA are common in processed foods. Stick to whole foods, including meat, eggs fish, nuts seeds, beans and fruit.
