ORGANIC
NEWS
Organic
foods
are produced according to certain production standards.
For crops,
it means they were grown without the
use of conventional pesticides,
artificial fertilizers,
human
waste, or sewage
sludge, and that they were processed
without ionizing
radiation or food
additives. For animals, it means they were reared
without the routine use of antibiotics
and without the use of growth
hormones. In most countries, organic produce must not be genetically
modified.

It
is vitally important that we can continue to say, with absolute conviction, that
organic farming delivers the highest quality,
best-tasting food, produced without artificial chemicals or genetic
modification, and with respect for
animal welfare and the environment, while helping to maintain the landscape and
rural communities. - Prince Charles
