Many have found organic farming to be kinder to the environment and more energy efficient too.
Organic food has been around in all parts of the world since time immemorial but was traditionally only accessible at small farmer's markets and on relatively small farms. In the old days, no certification was required to prove that produce was grown without the use of pesticides or additives, or that livestock was raised without being injected with hormones and fed antibiotics.
Today, in many Western countries, as organic food becomes increasingly popular, due the fact that its quality of taste and nutritional value have been proven superior, certification is required in order to market organic food as "organic."
Consumers that resist purchasing organic food often cite the vastly higher prices as a deterrent to eating organic. It has been shown, however, that the healthier you eat, the less food you need to sustain yourself. Although it is hard to change one's lifestyle at the drop of a hat, eating organic food often necessitates thinking organic if real results are expected to occur.
