Organic Agriculture and Farming Systems
Even before the official USDA definition and certification of organic agriculture in 2002, the market for organic foods was expanding. In the past decade, organic production and sales have grown between 10 and 20 percent annually.
Washington State University scientists lead the nation in researching the environmental benefits and economic vitality of organic farming. To help this burgeoning industry meet the demand for organic food, researchers at WSU are developing better techniques for producing and using natural and biological plant nutrients and management techniques. Their work helps farmers to create their own unique sustainable systems.
