Organic agriculture
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 certifications
Organic farming
Organic farming is just one part of a much larger supply chain that also includes processing, distribution, and retail. To access organic markets, every stage of this chain must be inspected and certified. Once all requirements are met, certification is granted — allowing the organic logo to be displayed on the approved products.
EU – Regulation EEC No. 2018/848 of Organic Production
