Organic farming is a way of producing food that respects natural life cycles. It minimises the human impact on the environment and operates as naturally as possible without using genetically modified organisms (GMO).

Organic farming

Organic farming is part of an extensive supply chain, which also includes food processing, distribution and retailing. To reach the organic markets, the whole chain of organic production needs to be inspected and certified. Should all requirements be fulfilled, the certificate can be issued and the organic logo can be used on the certified products.
