GILBERTO F. LAYESE Director, BAFPS Definition of Organic Agriculture
Organic agriculture is an agricultural
production system that promotes environmentally, socially and economically sound production of food and fibers, and excludes the use of synthetically compounded fertilizers, pesticides, growth regulators, livestock feed and additives and genetically modified organisms. (IFOAM) Principles of Organic Agriculture The Principle of Health - Organic Agriculture should sustain and enhance the health of soil, plant, animal and human as one and indivisible. The Principle of Ecology - Organic Agriculture should be based on living ecological systems and cycles, work with them, emulate them and help sustain them. The Principle of Fairness - Organic Agriculture should build on relationships that ensure fairness with regard to the common environment and life opportunities. The Principle of Care - Organic Agriculture should be managed in a precautionary and responsible manner to protect the health and well being of current and future generations and the environment. Why Go Organic Agriculture?
