“Organic” refers to the cultivation andprocessingA food system in which the methods used are “earth-friendly”.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(2) Are organic foods completely free of chemicals and pesticides?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
“The word ”organic" should not be taken to mean pesticide-free. Agricultural technology has continuously strived to control the entry of toxic substances and to help people maintain and replenish soil fertility. Certified organic products are supposed to be grown and processed according to strict standards for toxicity-free and persistent chemical-free methods. However, the growth of organic crops still exposes them to various agricultural chemicals. Monitoring shows that, taking the United States as an example, almost all rainfall and groundwater nationwide currently contain various trace chemicals due to the excessive use of chemicals over the past 50 years. Nevertheless, organic agronomy is still considered a more environmentally sound technology.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(3) Are organic foods more hygienic than other foods?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
There is still no conclusive answer to this question. Many long-term research projects are underway, measuring the health impacts of agrochemicals.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(4) What is the difference between natural food and organic food?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
Natural foods generally refer to those that are minimally processed, with no artificial ingredients, no preservatives and no other chemicals that cannot occur naturally in food. However, there is no legal definition for “natural”, nor is there an adequate system to guarantee consumers which ingredients are natural foods.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(5) How can we determine whether the food we purchase is organic?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
When we buy processed foods, look closely at the product包Is there the name of a certification body or the logo of these bodies on the label?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(6) What are the standards for labelling food as “organic food”?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
In the US, there is a standard from the 1990 Organic Foods Production Act that the organic food industry has long adopted.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(7) What is organic food certification?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
It is generally considered that organic products are grown and processed in accordance with strict standards.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(8) If standard herbicides and pesticides are not permitted, how are pests and diseases controlled?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
Controlling weeds through the use of cover crops, mechanical weeding, and mulching, as well as introducing beneficial ladybird beetles to control pests.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(9) Organic blendingsyrupWhat is the difference between Organic Sucanat and organic evaporated cane juice?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
Organic blended syrup is a blend of organic concentrated cane juice and organic final molasses (a product of the sugar-making process that is nutritious and rich in trace elements).文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
(10) Can cane farmers benefit from organic sugarcane farming?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
Yes, sugarcane farmers who grow organically can receive subsidies for doing so (taking the US as an example). In addition, organic sugarcane farmers use sustainable agricultural practices that do not deplete soil fertility in the cane fields, which, if chemicals were used, would pollute the groundwater. Consequently, the lifespan of the soil is extended, and future crops are protected.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
organic blended syrup can be used as a refinedgranulated sugarAlternative to?文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
Yes, in most cases where sugar is used, however, one should note that organic blended syrup is a light yellow syrup with a molasses flavour, so it may not be suitable for certain applications requiring a specific colour value or flavour.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/en/11297/
