The rise of the organic food market
Organic food is becoming increasingly popular. The organic industry has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years from $2 billion to over $60 billion in less than two decades with projected sales of over $100 billion annually.
What makes organic food so special?
The complications of the modern food system make it difficult to discern which foods are healthy and which aren’t. If you look at the ingredients on a packaged food, you’ll find that they’re generally confusing and hard to interpret. You may see things like “natural flavors,” “hormone free,” "preservative-free," or “gluten-free." These descriptions may be truthful, but what actually is in that product?
The term "organic" has become popular among consumers over the years. So, what makes organic food so special? The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) describes organic food as being cultivated using methods that do not use synthetic pesticides, fertilisers, antibiotics, growth hormones, GMOs, or other hazardous agricultural agents. Farmers who meet the requirements may use the USDA organic seal on their product. The organic label verifies that the food was produced through approved methods. It is not a certification; it is a set of production standards. And elimination of chemical additives in the farming process is what makes it healthier and tastier!
The growth of the organic food market
The organic food market has been growing steadily for almost a decade. In 2013, the global organic food market was estimated to be worth $101.5 billion in 2018. The United States is the largest producer and consumer of organic goods in the world, accounting for 37% of all global sales. Over 28% of American consumers buy organic foods regularly (at least once/month).
The industry is growing rapidly as consumers become more health-conscious and aware of the benefits that organic foods provide over conventional options including chemical residue reduction and increased nutritional value. To food-conscious people, purchasing organic is almost a religion. They spend more on groceries than they can afford and then turn around and get another part-time job to pay for it all. Organic is the new luxury, and this isn’t just a fad that will go away…
How to find local organic food!
Many people are interested in eating food that is local, fresh, and organic. The problem is that it can be expensive to buy this type of food at the grocery store. If you live in a big city, there's no way around the high prices since organic produce has to be shipped over long distances. However, if you have access to a local farmer's market or community garden where you can buy direct from the grower then it can also be cheaper than buying organic food at the grocery store.
