Organic Program
The Organic Program, working with North by Northwest Productions, has created two additional videos to share information with the public about organic certification and the certification process:
Preventative Practices for Organic Handlers
Organic Livestock Feed Requirements
These videos add to the series begun in 2015, when the Organic Program applied for and received a contract with USDA to promote Sound and Sensible Certification outreach, a USDA project with the goal of identifying and removing barriers to certification in order to make certification more accessible, attainable and affordable.
As a part of this project, the Organic Program produced three videos:
Steps to Certification: Organic Certification doesn’t have to be daunting. Explore the five key steps in the organic certification process.
Preventative Practices for Crop Producers: Managing weed, insect, and disease pests on an organic farm requires addressing potential problems before they arise. Learn more about preventative practices and how they are required for organic certification.
Recordkeeping: Keeping accurate records is crucial for any business. Find out what types of records are required for organic certification and how they will be evaluated during the certification process.
