hormones and antibiotics are forbidden.
 Farmers also use crop rotation to preserve the good
qualities of soils and avoid monoculture.

•Organic food is more expensive because farmers do not get
as much out of their land as conventional farmers do. Organic
products may cost up to 40% more.
•Production costs are higher because farmers need more
workers .
•Marketing and distribution is not efficient because organic
food is produced in smaller amounts.
•Food illnesses may happen more often

uses natural and regenerative processes:
 crop rotation
 animal and plant manuring
 mechanical weeding
 biological pest control
