Why organic, ie organic production, is important for humans and nature, what are the benefits of introducing organic production for producers and why we decided to create this portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Health<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Organic food\ndoesn’t contain GMO, trans-fat or other toxic substances. Farmers don’t use\ntraditional pesticides or fertilizers, and animals grow without constant use of\nantibiotics and hormones. It’s well-known, that these chemicals may cause many\ndiseases if constantly consumed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Also, when\nanimals and plants grow naturally \u2014 vitamins and antioxidants are greatly\nincreased in food. So organic products are not only safe but the most useful\nones. We can even feel the special rich flavor of such food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Environment<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Organic\nproduction is constantly developing, and farmers keep working on reducing the\nharmful impacts of their households on the environment. Farmers conserve soil\nfertility, protect the health and welfare of farmed animals, do not use\nchemical substances that might pollute waters. Thanks to this \u2014 people,\nanimals, and plants are safe around the farms. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conventional\nagriculture causes huge greenhouse gas emissions such as nitrogen oxide,\nmethane, carbon dioxide. Thus, significantly accelerating climate changes all\nover the planet. But organic farms have much less impact on the climate.\nAccording to IFOAM (The International Federation of Organic Agriculture\nMovements), in case of complete transition from conventional to organic\nagriculture until 2030 \u2014 it’s possible to compensate 20% of all agriculture\ngreenhouse gas emissions. And this makes a real difference for climate\nprotection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Economic Profitability<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n In the western\nworld, the profitability of organic households grows constantly. Organic\nproducts cost more than ordinary, and consumers are ready to pay extra for good\nquality and safe production. And that’s just the beginning. Right now not all\nthe Ukrainians know about the benefits of organic food, but with rising of\nawareness \u2014 consumption will be growing too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Creating\neconomic benefits for farmers is an important part of European and Ukrainian\norganic development agenda. European programs are being aimed at making\n“organic on every table” a reality until the year 2030, and they are\nfinanced accordingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thinking About the Future <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n We all have a\npower of choice. That’s what corporations and world marketing agencies compete\nfor. And the most modern advertising is being created only to get our\naffection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n By choosing\norganic, we not only protect our health, but we encourage the whole world to\ntake care of the planet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We know about\ncomplications related to availability, and also the production of organic food\nin Ukraine. That’s why we created Organic Info \u2014 a website that is going to\nhelp both consumers and farmers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We are happy to change the world with you!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Why organic, ie organic production, is important for humans and nature, what are the benefits of introducing organic production for producers and why we decided to create this portal.
