Organic Foods: What You Need to Know

Organic foods are made from animals and plants without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. They can be produced without the use of genetic engineering or ionizing radiation. Food must not contain artificial colours, flavour enhancers or preservatives. It cannot contain genetically modified organisms.

In 1845, Justus von Liebig, a chemist, first coined the term "organic", meaning "life-giving", to describe the properties and characteristics of manure. Today, organic is synonymous with food production. Organic means the product has only natural substances like proteins, carbohydrates, and fats that are found in nature.

The global consumption of organic products has increased dramatically over the past decade. According to recent statistics, about 50% of the global population consumes at-least one organic product every day. This percentage continues to rise and is projected to increase by 70%, 80%, or 90% by 2020.

There are many factors that consumers choose organic produce. Organic products are preferred by many people for their taste and health. Some also prefer organic produce because of the higher quality. Others believe that organic farming is more sustainable. Some consumers choose non-organic products because of ethical concerns about farm workers' and animal treatment.

Organic foods are more expensive than those made from conventional food, though prices may vary by country and region. There are many factors that affect the cost of organic food. One is the availability and cost of land that can be used for organic agriculture. Another is the cost of inputs and labour needed for organic cultivation. Transport costs, marketing costs and taxes are also important. In Europe, for instance, the average price for organic food in Europe is 10% higher than its regular price.
