ARBICO ORGANICS
ORGANIC GROWER: COMPANY SPOTLIGHT
The whole point
is to get as many
people in the supply
chain certified. And
there's a liability if
you're not certified. "
- Gwendolyn Wyard
of Food and Agriculture ordered a
liquid fertilizer company to remove
its product from the organic market
because the company had been
spiking its product with ammonium
sulfate, a synthetic fertilizer banned
from organic farming.
" It's an area where we continue
to hear some complaints saying
that we think maybe that fertilizer
isn't compliant, or there are farms
that are using fertilizer that's not
allowed, " Wyard said. " With so much
focus on the inputs, it's a reminder
that fraud can occur right here in
the middle of the U.S., on the West
Coast or East Coast. That's part of
what everybody's looking at as well.
Farmers need to look internally at
where fraud could occur. "
While SOE went into effect through
a March 19 implementation date,
Sept. 19 is the hard deadline for
compliance.
" The rule is here to protect the
organic produce farmer. It's here
to secure an organic agriculture
market, to grow and be successful, "
Wyand said.
