What is the difference between organic food and inorganic?
Organic food is grown without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers, sewage effluent, radiation, or genetic modification. Organic farming practices improve soil health and water quality as well as animal welfare.
Inorganic foods can be grown using pesticides, chemical fertilizers and sewage sludge. Radiated foods are those that have been exposed to radiation. Genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, are created using biological engineering techniques.
"Organic" and "natural" are often interchangeable. Natural does not always mean organic. Products labelled "natural", however, may contain synthetic chemicals.
Organic produce is more nutritious than traditional produce due to the fact that it contains less harmful chemicals and pesticides. Organic farmers do not use pesticides, artificial fertilizers, hormones, anti-biotics, and other harmful chemicals.
What is 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 is only possible on farms where the crops are grown naturally. This includes soil preparation, pest controls, and crop rotation.
Organic products must meet certain criteria established by USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) before they can be considered organic.
These guidelines make it possible for consumers to have safe, healthy, and delicious food.
Organic foods offer many health benefits. They are free from heavy metal contamination and pesticide residues. They also have higher nutritional content and better taste.
USDA organic products must carry the USDA Certified Organic seal.
This certification means the product has met the standards of the National Organic Program.
As well as ensuring that we eat healthier, organic food also helps protect our environment.
Organic farming techniques help preserve natural resources such as water and land. Additionally, organic farming methods help reduce greenhouse gas emission, which can lead to climate change.
Organic agriculture uses fewer chemicals, and less pollution runoff.
Because of this, harmful gases such as ammonia and even nitrates will not build up in the air.
There are many kinds of organic farming: permaculture, regenerative and conventional.
Conventional farming uses synthetic inputs such pesticides and fertilizers.
Regenerative farming includes compost, cover crops, as well as green manures that improve soil health. It encourages biodiversity.
Agroecology is concerned with sustainable relationships between humans, plants, animals, and the environment.
Permaculture encourages self sufficiency by designing systems that mirror nature.
Why is organic foods important?
For our health, organic produce is crucial. It's the best way to ensure we eat nutritious foods. It is healthier for us than any pesticides or fertilizers and it is also more eco-friendly.
Organic farming is a natural method of growing crops that uses no harmful chemicals. This reduces the risk of environmental pollution, which makes it safer for people and animals. By choosing organic food, you are protecting the planet as well as yourself.
But organic food offers more than just health benefits. We are all well aware of how harmful processed food can make our bodies feel. But did you know that most organic fruits and vegetables aren't treated with chemical spray either? That means that they taste fresher, look brighter and last longer too.
That's why eating organic matters so much. Because organic is healthier for you as well as for the world.

How To
Organic foods: Are they healthier and more nutritious than conventional food?
Organic foods are grown without the use chemical pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. They are grown naturally without artificial inputs such pesticides and herbicides. 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.
Two types of certification programs are available in the United States for producers who wish to have their products labeled organic. One is for farmers and ranchers; one is for manufacturers. Each program requires an annual audit of operations to ensure compliance with strict standards. There are several certifying organizations that offer these services. These include the CCOF Certified Organic Farmers & Ranchers as well as Quality Assurance International and the American Grassfed Association. All three organizations provide third-party verification of farms' adherence to strict guidelines regarding environmental stewardship, labour practices, and livestock care.
According to USDA's Economic Research Service in 2013, organic agriculture generated $4.7 billion in revenue. That year, retail spending on certified organic products totalled nearly $1.5 billion, representing a 23 percent increase since 2009. Groceries sales increased by 12 per cent during this time. Spending on organic produce directly increased by 29.9%, while meat, poultry eggs, and seafood spending grew only by 1%.
While organic food may be more expensive, consumers think its superior quality justifies the higher price. According to a 2015 survey conducted by Consumer Reports, 88 percent of respondents said they would pay more for organic food if it meant higher nutritional value. Another study published in Health Affairs found that people who eat organic foods are less likely to suffer health problems like cancer, diabetes, obesity, asthma, heart disease, and depression.
Even though there is no evidence organic foods cause or treat diseases, some studies show that they can improve overall health by reducing pesticide and other contaminants exposure. According to a 2010 review of 31 studies, organically raised beef showed significantly lower levels in toxic chemicals and parasites than conventionally produced beef. Similar results were also reached by a separate analysis of 11 2012 studies.
A 2014 report from the Environmental Working Group looked at data from the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Resource Center and found that the incidence of foodborne illness caused by E. coli, salmonella, listeria monocytogenes, campylobacter, and verotoxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 decreased when comparing organic to non-organic chicken, pork, beef, lamb, milk, and cheese. 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.
