“The
strongest motives for farmers
in these competitive times
are productivity and profitability,
and fortunately that is what
conversion to organics mean.
In an ideal world, everyone
would farm organically, simply
to develop and co-exist with
the environment – however
farmers need to survive and
it is excellent that sustaining
the environment is a direct
result of organic farmers
improving their lifestyles,
products and profits”
This
allows the grower to approach Rural Organics with their
product. Most times, Rural Organics can achieve a premium
for the grower's product and also ensures that the product
retains its integrity.
Organic certification for wool is the
latest innovation from Rural Organics.
Likewise,
certified organic processors can source their required
certified organic product from Rural Organics.
This
enables them to forward their product to the domestic
and international markets.
This
means that the consumer can then purchase certified organic
products, knowing that it has integrity.
Rural Organics offers assistance to all those involved
along the production chain. We have expert experience
in supplying the required forms and we also assist with
the completion of these forms.
