[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can something still be classified as organic yet full of pesticides from polluted rain and irrigation water?[/quote] There is very little regulation of the term "Organic." It's basically meaningless. That's one of the problems with shopping for Organic food.[/quote] Not true at all. USDA has fairly rigorous standards on use of the word "organic." You can criticize the standards themselves (which I do), but [i]something [/i]is being measured & regulated. (Part of USDA's mission is the protection/promotion of US agriculture, and in the case of the organic label they act almost as an industry guild with legal authority.) [/quote]
