Organic farming also allows for more 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 pollutants and conserves precious resources.

Organic farming also helps the environment by increasing crop yields. This is because organic agriculture uses less water in the growing season.

The USDA defines "organic" as that crops being raised according to strict rules set forth by federal government 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.

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, artificial growthhormones, synthetic insecticides, and synthetic fertilizers cannot be used by farmers.

Vegetables and fruits labeled as "100% organic" fulfill all of the requirements. Some farms don't label their products 100% organic, as it could confuse consumers. They will instead label their product "made with organic ingredients." "

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 contribute to soil health, water purity, and animal welfare.

Inorganic food is grown with pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Radiated foods are those that have been exposed to radiation. Genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, are created using biological engineering techniques.

"Natural" is sometimes used interchangeably in the context of "organic." However, natural does not necessarily mean organic. Products labelled "natural", however, may contain synthetic chemicals.

Organic produce is usually more nutritious that conventional produce. This is because organic soil contains fewer toxic chemicals and pesticides. Organic farmers are free from artificial fertilizers and pesticides.
