Where does my food come from and how it was produced?

Is organic food better?

Certainly even. But only if what is promised is inside. There is now a jungle of logos, sealed on all packaging. It is important to be aware that formulations such as “from environmentally friendly agriculture” or “from controlled cultivation” have nothing to do with organic origin. Only where it says “organic” or “ecological” is there organic.

The use of external energy is kept within limits and, for example, artificial fertilizers are avoided. Animals are kept in a species-appropriate and particularly animal-friendly manner, whereby the feed also comes from organic agriculture. Whatever arises is recycled – for example as compost. This activates nutrients and nourishes the soil, which in turn guarantees sustainability and increases biodiversity.

Diverse crop rotation as well as the use of beneficial organisms and homeopathy in animals promote ecological balance and animal health. Synthetic pesticides are not used. Just as little genetically modified organisms or processing aids as e.g. Rennet in cheese production. Farm animals are also not allowed to receive feed from genetically modified organisms. Only around thirty food additives are allowed for organic products – around ten times as many for conventional foods.

ATTENTION INDUCTION COOKER!

In modern kitchens, the induction cooker is almost indispensable. It is now considered a standard kitchen appliance. When electrical devices are in operation, they always generate alternating magnetic fields. It is important to know that induction cookers are particularly strong.

Especially as parents, you often spend several hours at the stove every day. So keep your distance! This applies to everyone, but especially to children and pregnant women. The minimum distance here should be 50-80 centimeters.

The same applies to microwave ovens, even if they are better shielded by the window glass.

Recognize organic food better

Organic food must bear the EU organic logo if it was produced within the EU. This is required by the EU organic regulation.

The AMA organic seal marks a special organic quality that is even stricter than required by the organic law. A red-white-red logo stands for the Austrian origin of the organic raw materials. Black and white logo: Here the origin is not restricted to a specific region.

This is the seal of the Association of Austrian Organic Farmers, which is mainly found on directly marketed organic products. The association guidelines are stricter than the EU organic regulation.
