"Certified Organic" labels tell you the foods you purchase have been verified as organically grown by an independent third party. To be certified, growers undergo farm inspections, including soil nutrient analysis. They must document all crop and soil inputs and develop soil fertility and pest control plans to deal with unexpected problems without resorting to prohibited materials. Growers must keep complete yield, harvest, and sales records, undergo at least two inspections prior to certification, and pass annual inspections to verify that they meet Certified Organic requirements. What is the difference between organic and certified organic? Produce sold as organic should carry labeling indicating that it was grown in accordance with the local State Food Act. This labeling simply means that the grower is registered with the state as an organic producer. Registered producers are not necessarily certified, and may not ever have been inspected to verify their organic claims. Why is certification important? When you buy produce with the seal of a recognized organic certification organization, you know its growers meet stringent standards of production and record keeping. Although growers may claim their produce is organic without certification, the extra step offers you assurance that the grower has been required to document and demonstrate the organic claim. Governing organizations can also provide back-up documentation on their members' growing practices. Consumers are seeking certified organic foods as an alternative food choice. Why?
