Organic farming also permits for the use of natural fertilizers. These fertilizers promote healthy plants and decrease the amount of chemicals used.

Organic farming is also eco-friendly. Farmers often use composting techniques to recycle nutrients back into the soil. This reduces pollution and conserves valuable resources.

As well as helping the environment, organic farming increases crop yields. This is because organic agriculture uses less water in the growing season.

Organic production methods also mean that farmers receive higher prices for their produce. Healthier foods are demanded by consumers who are more aware of the dangers posed by pesticides and chemical fertilisers.

What are some things I should look out for when purchasing organic goods?

USDA-certified organic labels should be sought. This certifies that the product has met certain standards set by USDA. On packages, boxes, cartons or cans, look out for the USDA Organic seal.

When purchasing meat, ensure it is 100% organic. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle have four stomach areas: rumen (reticulum), omasum (omasum), and abomasum. Organic feeding must be done on all organs of the animal in order to get the cow labelled organic 100 percent.

Buy chicken from only organic chickens that have been fed 100% organic food and are not given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens can eat both plants as well as animals. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive system that includes a crop (proventriculus), gizzard and small intestine.

It is important to ensure that dairy products are from cows that were fed 100% organic feed. Like ruminants, dairy cattle have four stomachs. The fourth stomach, or the udder is where you get milk.

Check the label when purchasing livestock of any other type to find out what percentage was used in the animal's diet. A label for pork might say "95% organic", which means that 95% of the feed used by the pork came from organic sources.

Organic foods are made without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, hormones, steroids, antibiotics, or genetically altered organisms (GMO). Organic farmers aren't allowed to use these substances.

Growing organic crops is an art. There are many methods to safely grow them.

Many people refer to organic agriculture as sustainable agriculture. This means that while it uses fewer resources than conventional methods, it provides the necessary nutrients to sustain life.

Organic farming methods include crop rotations, composting manure and cover cropping. These techniques reduce soil erosion and increase water quality.

They also reduce chemical contamination of waterways. Because most people live in urban areas, it is easy to find farms that grow organic produce.

Two types of certification programs are available for organic products. The USDA National Organic Program certifies one, while independent certifying agencies certification the other. Both require strict compliance with organic standards.

USDA seals and O Seals may be used to identify organic products that meet federal standards.

They also tend to have higher prices. This is why we created the Organic Food Index. We wanted to see which foods are most in demand today and how these trends are changing.

These results indicate that organic food is growing in popularity. The number of Americans shopping for organic food grew by nearly 50% between 2011 and 2012.

According to USDA, organic production grew by 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. Looking closely at the data, you'll see that organic food consumption has grown steadily since 2009.

According to OTA the volume of organic products sold at supermarkets grew by 14% in 2010 and 2011.

This increase reflects consumer demand for healthier foods, which explains why organic food sales are increasing across all age groups.

However, the younger generation is leading the charge in choosing organic food. Millennials are twice as likely than baby boomers to buy organic foods. And young adults under 35 years old account for 25% of all organic food purchases.

How To

5 Reasons to buy organic products

Organic food is grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. They do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs), or radioactive ingredients. 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 is no use hormones or anti-biotics. 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 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. Because it takes so much energy to grow conventionally, organic farms tend to be located far away from urban areas where there's plenty of pollution. This helps to reduce 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. Strong immune systems develop when farm animals are fed only grasses grown without antibiotics or added hormones.
4. Taste. Because they are picked at their peak ripeness and then shipped long distances to supermarkets, conventional fruits and vegetables can often taste bland. Because it was picked while still unripe, organic produce is richer and more flavorful.
5. Nutrition. Many conventional processed foods contain harmful substances like BPA and GMOs. If you want to avoid these, stick to whole foods such as meat, eggs, fish, nuts, seeds, beans, fruit, veggies, and herbs.
