Is organic meat more nutritious?
If you have been paying attention for long enough, you will probably know the answer. The problem is that organic food is increasingly popular, but conventional food continues its decline.
Organic foods continue rising in popularity because they are healthier. Organic foods are also safer for our overall health and reduce pollution.
There are many sides to this coin. Organic produce takes more time to grow and requires greater resources. Organic food is generally more expensive than nonorganic.
Organic meats are generally more expensive than conventionally raised animals. There are however ways to lower these costs without sacrificing the quality of organic meats.
Local purchases can help you save money. Buy locally grown vegetables and fruits to help keep prices low. Farmers receive incentives to grow healthier crops.

What are organic fruits and vegetables?

Organic foods are produced with sustainable farming practices that promote soil quality and biological diversity. They are free of harmful chemicals and sewage sludge.
Most people associate organics with fruits, but organic products also include dairy, meat and poultry, as well as baked goods, personal care items, pet food and household cleaning supplies.
The USDA defines organic as crops that are grown according to federal standards. Non-organic methods cannot be used by farmers to grow these foods. They can use approved natural pest control methods such as crop rotation, cover cropping and organic animal feed.

Fruits and vegetables labelled "100% organic" meet all the requirements above. But, not all farms label their produce as 100% organic. It would confuse consumers. Instead, they will say that their product is "made with organic components". "

What are the things to look for when purchasing organic products?
USDA-certified organic labels are recommended. This certification means that the product is certified organic by USDA. Look out for the USDA Organic seal on boxes, cartons cans and jars.
When shopping for meat, ensure it comes from cows fed 100% organic feed. Cattle are ruminants, which means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle can be found with four stomach compartments: the rumen, the reticulum, omasum, abomasum and omasum. If a cow is to be labeled organically, all parts must be organically fed.
When buying chicken, make sure it comes only from chickens fed 100% organic feed and never given antibiotics. Omnivore chickens eat both animals and plants. Omnivorous chickens have a digestive tract composed of a crop, proventriculus, gizzard, small intestine, large intestine, and anus.
Buy only dairy products from cows that have been fed organically grown feed. Like ruminants and dairy cows, they have four stomach compartments. The fourth stomach compartment is the udder.
When purchasing other types of livestock, check the label to see what percentage of the diet the animals were fed. For example, pork may be labelled '95% organic.' This means 95 percent of the pig's feed came from organic sources.
What is inorganic food?
Organic food is made without pesticides or artificial fertilizers. These chemicals can cause health problems in organic foods.
Organic food is organically grown without the use of harmful chemicals such as pesticides or herbicides. These chemicals can harm humans and animals.

This means that it must not contain prohibited materials like antibiotics, growth hormones or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), as well as industrial solvents. Organic food must not contain toxic chemicals, petroleum-based fertilizers or sewage sludges.
