USDA tightens organic standards bans GM ingredients and sludge
The Agriculture Department will publish strict organic rules prohibiting genetically modified ingredients and the use of sludge in organic products, with 100 percent organic and 95 percent organic product categories allowed to bear the seal. The move aims to aid small and medium farmers, boost exports, and requires a 90 day public comment period before final enactment.
