An Organic Future
Posted: March 2, 2015 at 1:52 pm
The words organic and sustainability are bandied around quite a bit. While some wont eat anything but organic, others deny that theres any future in organic farming. After all, with a population thats seven billion-strong and growing, how can we possibly expect organics to feed the world? Or so the critics ask. In their view, feeding the masses simply cant be done without strong chemicals and genetic modification.
However, organic farming has far more capacity than many people imagine. It goes way, way beyond growing a few tomato plants on your back verandah. Besides, if we want to live on a clean, healthy planet, going organic is the only way forward not only for gardeners and farmers, but also for all businesses related to agriculture, from your local caf to your nearest supermarket, from your preferred beautician to your favorite clothing boutique. In fact, when you think about just how many industries depend on agriculture, its clear that a shift towards sustainable, chemical-free practices is essential.
Worker and consumer health
The first and most pressing argument for organics is human health. Current intensive agricultural practices expose people especially farmworkers to toxic pesticides. In 2002, a Californianstudyrevealed that, between 1997 and 2000, an average of 475 farmworkers suffered pesticide poisoning annually. As the study suggests, the total figure was probably much higher, given that many cases go unreported each year. Whats more? Increasingly,studiesare demonstrating links between pesticides and cancer, as well as disruption of the endocrine system.
Meanwhile, those at the other end of organic farming consumers also face health risks. Food grown using intensive techniques cancontain pesticide residues, which consumers ingest when they eat. Plus, some studies show that organic products are more nutritious than their conventionally farmed counterparts. For example, astudy(PDF) conducted by the (admittedly biased) Organic Center showed that organic food performs much better when it comes to antioxidant power, polyphenol levels and flavonoid levels. And the same goes for animal products. Dairy products from animals raised on organic farms, which havent been fed antibiotics, tend to be higher in antioxidants and omega-3.

Most organic food in market is fake: food safety official
Posted: at 5:53 am
Much of the organic foods available in the markets are fake, Assistant Food Safety Commissioner (Kollam) A.K. Mini has said.
Marketers of most organic products are cheating customers by charging more through false claims and this sector is now growing into one of the biggest ways through which people are cheated.
Ms. Mini said this while addressing a seminar on safe water and food, organised by the Laboratory and Technical Division (LTD) attached to the Cashew Export Promotion Council of India (CEPCI), here on Saturday. This situation calls for stringent and flawless methods to certify organic food products, she said.
Overdose of permitted colours in food is rampant in Kollam, and this is harmful to human health.
She said only 100 milligrams of permitted colour was the upper limit for one kilo gram of pastry product. But many bakeries do not have any measuring standards. Adding even permitted colours to meals sold from restaurants is an offence.
Earlier food safety authorities looked only for unpermitted colours. But now, detection comprises quantitative analysis to find out whether permitted colours have been added in excess of the permitted levels. Ms. Mini said all food supplements could be marketed only after obtaining the mandatory approval from the Food Safety Authority of India.
Such food imported should comply with the domestic regulations in force in the country. This is the reason why some food products from China have been denied import permission recently. Our food products exported should mandatorily comply with the food safety standards of the importing country. She said while cigarettes were not banned, pan masala was banned under the Food Safety and Standards Act because it was a consumable product. More than 2 tonnes of such tobacco products were seized from the district during raids. The High Court has now given permission to destroy the entire seized quantity.
She said during drives in the past the use of hazardous chemical erythrocin in watermelons was detected in Kollam district. Now with the start of the watermelon, the surveillance has resumed.
