Bulletin of the IDF N° 347/2000 - Organic Dairy Products - Scanned copy

Publication description

International Seminar held in Athens, Greece, September 1999

The papers examine what "going organic" means — how "organic" is achieved and systems of certification, approval and labelling. The implications for dairy farm operation and agricultural practice are considered, as well as the cost involved in going organic, the effects on productivity and veterinary practice and the transition from conventional to organic production. Milk producers’ objectives in going organic and their practical experience are presented.
