Organic produce: | Conventionally-grown produce: |
Grown with natural fertilizers (manure, compost). | Grown with synthetic chemical fertilizers, pesticides etc. |
Weeds are controlled naturally (crop rotation, hand weeding, mulching, and tilling). | Weeds are controlled with chemical herbicides. |
Pests are controlled using natural methods (birds, insects, trap crops) and naturally-derived herbal pesticides. | Pests are controlled with synthetic pesticides |
Organic food virtually eliminates the risk of chemical residues but this is not its main advantage over conventional products. Strict avoidance of all chemicals in all stages of production makes organic food much more environmentally friendly because the use of all natural production methods eliminates the risk of soil and underwater contamination, and helps preserve biodiversity and wildlife both of which have been seriously affected by the human actions, primarily urbanization and intensive agriculture.
Organic farming also improves animal welfare because organic farms are required to keep their animals in certain environment and provide them access to sunlight and outdoors, for instance. In the end, organic food helps reduce the carbon dioxide emissions and fight the global climate change because it is mostly sold locally.
Organic products are usually priced more compared to the conventional products due to the following reasons,
- Less chemical means more labor work
- Cost of Bio fertilizer for organic farming
- Crop Rotation
- Post-harvest handling cost
- Organic Certification
- Organic food grows slowly
