We are a consortium of agriculture specialists that provides consultancy and training services for organic crop and livestock production. Our services include training farmers on organic methods, direct marketing of organic products, and promoting indigenous crops and animals. Livestock should be raised organically without synthetic inputs to produce healthy, residue-free products and allow animals to exhibit natural behaviors. A conventional farm can convert to organic by following certification procedures and withdrawal periods for treated animals. Organically certified livestock products are distinguished by certification labels.

What Is Organic Farming
Organic farming is a system of agriculture that uses natural and biodegradable inputs while avoiding synthetic fertilizers. The main principles of organic farming are health for the soil, plants, animals, humans and the planet; ecology in agriculture based on living ecological systems and cycles; and fairness and care for the common environment and life opportunities. Organic farming helps conserve the environment by using inputs that don't leave toxic residues, promoting biodiversity, and encouraging recycling of biodegradable materials.
Organic foods powerpoint
Organic foods are produced, processed, and packaged without using chemicals and synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides. While there is no evidence that organic foods are more nutritious, organic farming is better for the environment as it reduces pollution and uses less energy and water. Organic standards also aim to maintain natural animal behavior and health while limiting antibiotic use, which has been linked to antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Organic food tends to cost more than conventional food due to the higher costs associated with organic production methods.
Organic farming
This document discusses organic farming methods and their advantages over conventional farming. Organic farming prohibits synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, genetic engineering, sewage sludge, and food irradiation. It relies on crop diversity, pest control, livestock, and plant nutrition to farm sustainably. Organic farming can reduce production costs by 25% while eliminating chemicals and increasing yields within 5 years. It produces food free from harmful additives and may reduce health risks like heart disease and cancer. Organic farming also benefits the environment by building soil, reducing water pollution, decreasing energy use and greenhouse gases, and sequestering carbon in the soil.
Environment ppt

Is it better to choose to organic meat
Organic meat production has unique standards to ensure the health and sustainable treatment of animals. While organic regulations require access to pastures and organic feed, the label alone does not guarantee high animal welfare. Some organic farms have been found to keep animals in poor health conditions due to exposure to elements or lack of medical care. Overall, organic standards are intended to improve environmental and health outcomes, but do not necessarily provide consistently high animal welfare compared to all conventional operations. The higher costs of organic meat may not guarantee better living conditions for animals in all cases.
What is organic food australia
Organic food in Australia refers to food produced without artificial chemicals, genetically modified organisms, or irradiation. Organic farmers prioritize animal welfare and environmental sustainability. Common organic products in Australia include eggs, meat, grains, fruits and vegetables. Organic farming practices include treating animals humanely without antibiotics or hormones and protecting ecosystems by using renewable resources and natural cycles. While organic food may contain trace chemical residues, pesticide levels are much lower than conventionally grown foods.

organic
Organic farms allow animals and plants to grow naturally and without hormones or antibiotics. This allows them to develop better mentally and physically. When shopping for organic foods, it is important to check for certification from organizations like Demeter, BFA, or NASAA to ensure the food was produced organically and without chemicals. Supermarkets sometimes label foods as natural or organic when they are not, so certification is needed to confirm the organic nature of the product.

Food Processing, Food Spoilage and their Prevention: An OverviewSSR Institute of International Journal of Life Sciences
ABSTRACT- Fruits and vegetables are the important source in human life. It should be safe and consists of good shelf
life which can improve the level of consumption of fruits and vegetable among the society. The processing is such a great
parameter which analyses the quality of food. Today fruits and vegetables are susceptible to the growth of microorganism
which may be air borne, soil borne and water borne disease. Enzymes offer potential for many exciting applications for
the improvement of foods. There is still, however, a long way to go in realizing this potential. Economic factors i.e.
achievement of the optimum yields and efficient recovery of desired protein are the main deterrents in the use of enzymes.
Changing values in society with respect to recombinant DNA & protein engineering technologies and the growing need to
explore all alternative food sources may in time make enzyme applications more attractive to the food industry
