A farmer must also adhere to guidelines about how much fertilizer or pesticide he applies during the growing season. Also, he must rotate his fields between different crops. GMOs, synthetic insecicides, artificial growth hormones or synthetic fertilizers can't be used by farmers.

Vegetables and fruits labeled as "100% organic" fulfill all of the requirements. But not all farms will label their products 100% organic. That would confuse consumers. Instead, they will call their product "made using organic ingredients." "

5 Reasons to Buy Organic Products

Organic foods are free from pesticides and synthetic fertilisers. They are free from genetically modified organisms and irradiated substances. They do not use industrial solvents or sewage effluent in their production. During the growth process, food is kept clean from any contamination. It is free of artificial preservatives and additives. There are no hormones and antibiotics used. They are also made in conditions that maintain their nutritional value and freshness for longer times.

1. Health benefits. Organic produce contains less chemicals that nonorganic. This means that it is less likely to cause allergies. This means you're also consuming less toxic and carcinogens.
2. Eco-friendliness. Produce grown without pesticides and synthetic fertilizer requires very little water. Organic farms are often located far from areas with high levels of pollution because it takes so much energy for conventional agriculture to grow. This helps to reduce air pollution.
3. Sustainability. Organic farming relies on soil fertility rather than chemical fertilizers; this results in healthier soils with higher levels of organic matter. Rotating crops and allowing the soil to rest between harvests improves soil health. Strong immune systems develop when farm animals are fed only grasses grown without antibiotics or added hormones.
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. If you want to avoid these, stick to whole foods such as meat, eggs, fish, nuts, seeds, beans, fruit, veggies, and herbs.
