What there is to know about the differences between the organic beef and conventional beef that are being sold in the markets and groceries. We did the research for you
The word “organic” is thrown around with much enthusiasm these days. It began with organic fruits and vegetables and more recently, there is the addition of “organic beef” being thrown under the microscope by the health conscious. But what exactly is organic beef all about?
Based on research, “organic” is a labeling term that tells us that the food has been produced through approved methods that integrate cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Simply, organic farming bears a strong resemblance to the good old days of traditional farming before technology took over. It’s like going back to basics.
