Frequently Asked Questions
What is organic beef?
Organic meat is real food grown without pesticides, artificial fertilizers, or hormones. This also means that animals weren't given any genetically modified feed. Because there are no harmful chemicals in the meat, it is safe for human consumption.
Organic meats are also healthier for the environment. The pollution levels in our environment are reduced when we eat organic foods. Organic farmers generally don't use toxic chemicals that kill birds and insects. We help to protect wildlife.
You can eat organic meats and produce whenever you can. Local buying helps to keep money in the community, rather than moving out of state. Local businesses often pass along savings to customers when shopping locally. In addition, buying local keeps jobs right here in America instead of sending them overseas.
How can I determine if my produce was organic?
These three labels are essential if you want to be certain that you are purchasing organic produce.
USDA Organic Certified - Produce certified by the USDA as being 100% organic.
Certified Naturally Grown is produce that has met strict organic requirements but not yet been certified by the USDA.
Pastured/Free range - These are animals that live outside and graze freely on grasses and herbs.
These labels indicate that the product meets specific criteria, which include:
- There are no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers
- No genetically modified organisms
- No antibiotics are ever given to the animal
- Animals never receive hormones
- No growth-promoting drug
- No feed additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No irradiation
- No sewage effluent
- GMOs prohibited
- There have never been any antibiotics given.
- No hormones ever given
- No growth-promoting drugs
- No feed-additives
- No artificial ingredients
- No sewage solids (if it's not GMO).
- No irradiation

What are some of the benefits of organic agriculture?
Organic farming offers farmers a method of growing food that doesn't require the use of chemicals. Organic farming is a way for farmers to produce food without using harmful pesticides.
Organic farming can also use natural fertilizers. These fertilizers promote healthy plants and decrease the amount of chemicals used.
Organic farming is also environmentally friendly. For example, organic farming uses composting techniques to re-use nutrients in the soil. This reduces pollution and preserves valuable resources.
As well as helping the environment, organic farming increases crop yields. This is because organic farming requires less water to grow the crops.
Organic production methods mean farmers can get higher prices. People who are more conscious of the dangers of chemical fertilizers and pesticides will eat healthier food.
This drives up the demand for organic products. Organic farming is growing in popularity.
What is organic food?
Organic produce is grown without pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation, genetic engineering, or confinement feeding. No growth hormones are used, and there is no animal testing. These crops can grow naturally so that farmers don't have to use pesticides or weed control.
Organic farming methods also help to preserve soil quality, reduce erosion, and conserve water resources. In addition, organics are better for our health because they contain more nutrients than conventional food. Organic foods are often higher in fiber, lower in fat, and less calories than those produced conventionally.
What does it mean to be an organic food producer?
Organic food producers produce organic foods that are free from pesticides and other chemical fertilizers. These foods include fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products.
Organic food production happens on farms where crops have been naturally nurtured. This includes soil preparation, pest controls, and crop rotation.
For an agricultural product to be considered organic, it must meet strict criteria set out by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture).
These guidelines help consumers access healthy, safe and nutritious foods.
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 certified organic products must bear the USDA Certified Organic label.
This certification means that the product meets the standards laid down by the National Organic Program.
As well as ensuring that we eat healthier, organic food also helps protect our environment.
Organic farming techniques conserve water and land. In addition, organic methods reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which cause climate change.
Organic agriculture uses fewer chemicals and reduces pollution runoff.
It improves air quality as harmful gases such nitrates or ammonia are less likely to accumulate in the atmosphere.
There are many kinds of organic farming: permaculture, regenerative and conventional.
Conventional farming is the use of synthetic inputs like pesticides or fertilizers.
Regenerative farming uses compost, cover crops, green manures, and other methods to improve the soil's health. It promotes biodiversity.
Agroecology emphasizes sustainable relationships between people and plants.
Permaculture encourages self sufficiency by designing systems that mirror nature.
Statistics
- When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
- Nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids were up to 50 percent higher in organic meats and milk than in conventionally raised products.[3] (en.wikipedia.org)
- 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)
- Once certified by the USDA, it can fall into one of four categories: "100 percent organic", "organic," "made with organic ingredients," or "made with less than 70 percent organic ingredients. (en.wikipedia.org)

How To
Organic foods are healthier and more nutritious.
Organic food is produced without chemical pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. They are grown under natural conditions, without artificial inputs like pesticides, herbicides hormones, antibiotics, genetic engineering, and fungicides. Organic farming practices include crop rotation, cover crops, composting animal manure, recycling wastewater, and integrated pest management (IPM).
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. NOP regulations make sure that organic agricultural product conforms to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Organic products must also be free from banned substances, such as pesticides residues, growth hormones and irradiation.
For producers in the USA who want their products "organic", there are two kinds of certification programs: one for farmers or ranchers and one for manufacturers. Both programs require annual audits of operations to verify compliance with rigorous standards. This service is offered by several certifying agents, such as the CCOF Certified Organic Farmers & Ranchers or Quality Assurance International. These three organizations provide third party verification of farms following strict guidelines on environmental stewardship. labour practices, and animal care.
According to USDA’s Economic Research Service, organic farming accounted for $4.7Billion in 2013 sales. It was a 23 percent rise in retail spending for certified organic products since 2009. The number of grocery stores that sold organic products increased 12 percent over the same period. Spending on direct purchases of organic produce increased by 29 percent, while spending on meat, poultry, eggs, dairy, and seafood grew by only 1 percent.
Although organic food can be more expensive than regular food, many consumers feel that its quality is well worth the additional cost. Consumer Reports found that 88 per cent of respondents would be willing to pay more for organic food if the nutritional value was higher. Health Affairs also published a study showing that organic foods are less likely for people to get heart disease, diabetes, cancer, or obesity.
There is no evidence to suggest eating organic foods can treat or prevent any diseases. However, some studies have suggested that they might be beneficial for your health as they may reduce your exposure of pesticides and contaminants. In 2010, a review that included 31 studies concluded that organically-raised beef had lower levels of parasites and toxic chemicals than conventionally reared beef. A separate analysis of 11 publications from 2012 produced similar results.
The Environmental Working Group released a report in 2014 that analyzed data from USDA's Agricultural Marketing Resource Center. They found that there was a decrease in foodborne illness due to E.coli, salmonella, listeria moncytogenes or campylobacter. The group also observed that E.coliO157 is a less prevalent cause of illness in humans among children than adults. This was because the USDA has imposed stricter organic standards on animals raised for human consumption.
