About This Item

 

Full Description

This standard outlines principles for organic agriculture that endorse sound production and management practices to enhance the quality and sustainability of the environment and ensure the ethical treatment of livestock.

This document specifies the minimum criteria that must be met when food products, inputs and other products used in organic production are defined as organic, or comparable wording described in this standard.

The scope of this standard includes, but is not limited to, the period of conversion to organic agriculture, production plans and records, crop and livestock production, production requirements for maple products, honey, greenhouse crops, mushrooms, sprouted plants, and wild and natural products, the production, and processing of organic products, packaging, labelling, storage and distribution of organic food products, and the Permitted Substances List.

The testing and evaluation of an organic product, or other component, against this standard may require the use of materials and/or equipment that may be hazardous to the health and safety of the evaluator. This document does not purport to address any safety aspects associated with use of test materials or equipment. It is the responsibility of individuals employing this standard to consult with appropriate authorities and to adopt appropriate health and safety practices in conjunction with any applicable regulatory requirements before use.

This standard does not, in any way, absolve any product, individual, corporation, association or organization from complying with any federal, provincial or municipal act.
