What are the top organic products?
Today, organic food is the fastest growing industry. There is still much to be done, even though we have come so far from our roots.
Organic products are the future. Organic products are safer, more sustainable, and cheaper for consumers.
But they also tend to be higher priced. The Organic Food Index was created to address this. We wanted the ability to identify which foods are currently most popular and whether these trends have changed.
These findings show that organic foods are becoming more popular. Between 2011-2012, nearly half of Americans shopped for organic foods.
The USDA reports that organic production increased 10% last year. The U.S. now produces 9% of its agricultural output from organic food.
Organic food is certainly on the rise but consumers are still not able to afford it. The Organic Trade Association (OTA) reports that organic food retail prices average almost double the price of conventional foods.
The organic food sector is growing faster than other segments of the food supply. If you examine the data closely, you will see that organic foods have grown steadily in consumption since 2009.
According to OTA the volume of organic products sold at supermarkets grew by 14% in 2010 and 2011.
This increase is due to consumers' demand for healthier foods. It is why organic food sales are growing across all ages.
However, younger generations are leading the charge when choosing organic food. Millennials are twice as likely than baby boomers to buy organic foods. Young adults below 35 years of age account for 25%.

How To
Are there downsides to buying organic products?
Organic food has many benefits. There are some downsides to organic food. These include higher prices for consumers, lower quality standards, and fewer options.
It is okay to want more variety when shopping for groceries. But we've been programmed to expect cheap food that tastes terrible. You'll find identical prepackaged foods in most grocery stores.
But today, organic food is becoming increasingly popular because it offers better nutrition and tastes great. So how do you convince people it's worth paying a little extra?
It's possible to tell them that organic food is more expensive. It doesn't change the fact that organic food tastes more delicious. It might even make them suspicious of your motives.
Instead, it would be best if you highlighted its advantages. Organic food is healthier and contains less pesticides, antibiotics, and it has higher nutritional content. Organic food is also grown without the use of synthetic fertilizers or herbicides. This makes it healthier for our bodies and the environment.
Many people don't want to eat organic food because it is too expensive. But if they think about the health benefits, it may be worth spending a few bucks per week.
The reason why organic food tastes better is that it's produced under strict guidelines that prevent contamination. It tends also to retain more vitamins and minerals.
Organic food is also tastier because it's picked later in the season. This makes it more fresh and easy to digest.
Organic food is generally more affordable because the farmers grow it organically. This requires less labour as well as fertilizer.
