What is the difference between organic and ultra organic food?

Foods that come from organic agricultural production systems, are produced and processed in accordance with international organic agricultural production requirements and corresponding standards, and have been certified by independent organic food certification bodies, such as the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (FOAM).

Organic food is also called ecological or biological food. Organic food is a relatively unified reference to pollution-free natural food on the current national standard. Organic food usually comes from organic agricultural production systems and is produced and processed in accordance with international organic agricultural production requirements and corresponding standards.

In addition to organic food, at present, some derivative products such as organic cosmetics, textiles, forest products or organic food production materials are also provided by the international market, including biological pesticides, organic fertilizers, etc., which are collectively referred to as organic products after certification.

"Super organic food" can be ignored and must be the concept hype of some enterprises.

Ultra-organic? This is not hype, a term that is hyped and out of hype. It's the first time I've heard it.

Food grades are now not divided into: pollution-free food, green food (divided into A, and AA, and AA is equivalent to organic food), organic food. As for ultra-organic food, this is the first time I've heard of it, maybe I'm too far behind! ~

Organic food is a concept commonly used in the world at present, and super organic is San'an's own corporate standard.

Organic food: The enforcement standard is that small amounts of agricultural residues are allowed.

Ultra-organic food: The standard implemented is the standard of zero pesticide residues.

General food: The standard implemented is high pesticide residue standards. (fertilizer residues, pesticide residues, heavy metal residues).

Pollution-free food: The standard implemented is the standard of medium pesticide residues.

Green Food: The standard implemented is the low to medium pesticide residue standard.

Organic food: The standard is to allow relatively small amounts of agricultural residues.

Japan, EU Food: The standard implemented is the low pesticide residue standard.

Ultra-organic food: The standard implemented is zero pesticide residue standard.

The differences between organic food and regular food are as follows:

1. The concept is different.

Ordinary (general) food means any substance, whether processed, semi-processed or unprocessed, intended for human consumption, including beverages, gum candy, and any substance used in the manufacture, preparation or handling of food, but excluding cosmetics, tobacco or substances intended solely for medicinal purposes.

General food is defined as a substance that can be consumed or consumed by humans, including processed foods, semi-finished products and unprocessed foods, excluding tobacco or substances used only as medicines.

Organic food refers to foods that are completely free of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, growth regulators, ripening agents, and livestock and poultry feed additives.

2. **Different.

According to the survey of the organic food market in Beijing and Shanghai, organic food is generally 30%-80% higher than that of ordinary food, and some varieties, such as organic vegetables, are 2-3 times that of ordinary vegetables.

3. The pollution situation is different.

Since no synthetic chemicals are used in the production process of organic food, the content of contaminants in organic food is generally lower than that of ordinary food.

The differences between organic and inorganic foods are as follows:

1. The raw materials are different. Organic food ingredients come from organic farming systems or wild natural products.

2. The packaging is different. The packaging of organic products usually uses degradable or usable packaging materials made of wood, bamboo, plant stems and leaves, and paper.

3. The production standards are different. In the production and processing process of organic food, it is necessary to strictly follow the standards of organic food production, collection, processing, packaging, storage and transportation. It is necessary to establish a strict quality management system, production process control system and tracking system, and generally need to have a conversion period, that is, it takes 2-3 years of fallow, cultivation, and then testing and certification, and the products grown are organic food.

Can you identify an organic product by its appearance and taste?

Organic food is required not to use chemically synthesized pesticides, fertilizers, growth regulators, feed additives and other substances in the production process of animals and plants, nor can it be a product of genetic engineering, but a product that completely follows the laws of natural growth.

Although some experts and researchers believe that foods produced organically are much better than ordinary foods in terms of taste and nutrition, there is currently no such indicator to distinguish organic foods from ordinary foods. As for the appearance, there is no obvious difference between organic food and ordinary food, and some of them are even worse.

The main difference between organic and regular food is how they are produced and quality standards.

Organic food is food produced by following organic agricultural production standards and using organic agricultural production techniques. Standards for organic agriculture include a ban on the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, as well as a ban on the use of genetically modified technologies and antibiotics. Organic food is often produced using natural fertilizers and natural methods of controlling pests and diseases, which helps to maintain the health and ecological balance of the soil.

On the other hand, common food products may be produced using chemically synthesized pesticides, fertilizers, and other artificial additives. These chemical additives may remain in food and pose a potential risk to human health.

In conclusion, organic food is produced in a more natural and environmentally friendly way, which is more beneficial to human health.

The differences between organic food and ordinary food are: the use of synthetic substances, the requirements of the conversion period, the requirements of quantity, etc.

1. The use of synthetic substances.

The use of pesticides, fertilizers, hormones and other synthetic substances in the production and processing of organic food is absolutely prohibited, and the use of genetic engineering technology is not allowed. Other foods are allowed to be used in a limited way, and the use of genetic engineering techniques is not prohibited.

2. Requirements for the transition period.

Organic food has strict regulations when it comes to the transformation of land production. Considering that a substance will remain in the environment for a considerable period of time, it takes a two- to three-year transition period for land to produce other foods to produce organic food, while there is no requirement for the transition period for the production of green food and pollution-free food.

3. Quantitative requirements.

The quantity of organic food is strictly controlled, requiring a fixed plot and output, while the production of other foods does not have such strict requirements.

Recommended methods for identifying organic food:

In addition, organic vegetables generally rot partially and the decay process is slow, and vegetables that have been used with chemical fertilizers are mostly rotten whole.

2. Pay attention to the organic certification mark on the packaging: According to the relevant regulations of our country, the packaging of organic food must have two logos at the same time, one is the organic food logo, and the other is the organic certification logo.

3. Pay attention to whether the relevant information of the producer is clear on the packaging bag: the regular organic vegetable manufacturer will paste the product traceability code and product-related information (name, address, **) on each vegetable, etc., which can be queried by the relevant ** or relevant departments according to these information.
