Chii Chinogadzira Zvokudya "Organic"?
"Organic" inyanzvi inoreva chero chinhu chipi zvacho chinonzi carbon-based. Izvozvo zvakati, zvikamu zvakasimudza zvokudya zvinotevera maitiro ezvakatemwa maitiro akasiyana nenzira dzakawanda kubva mune zvekurima.
Mapurazi bedzi anopfuura kuburikidza nehutano hwekutenda kwenyika yavo kana hurumende vanogona kutora zvokudya zvavo zvakasikwa. Iyi inodhura. Kune mapoka maduku anotevera kushandiswa kwekurima kwekurima maitiro anosarudza kuregera chiyeuchidzo kunyange zvazvo maitiro avo pachavo anosangana kana kudarika izvo zvinoda.
Zvinokonzerwa nehutano zvakasiyana kubva kune dzimwe nyika, asi zvokudya zvinonzi zvakasikwa muUnited States zvinofanira kusimudzwa zvichienderana nemamwe mazano, kusanganisira:
- Hapana kushandiswa kwekugadzirwa kwemakemikari
- Hapana kushandisa irradiation
- Hapana kushandisa sewage sludge (yep, inoshandiswa kune dzimwe hurimi)
- Kwete zvipenyu zvakasiyana-siyana (GMOs)
- Yakasimwa pamapurazi iyo yakange isisina yepamusoro pamusoro pemakore anenge matatu *
- Detailed records of the practices used, including the use of allowed, organic sprays or other types of application
- Periodic on-site kuongorora
- USDA-chiyeuchidzo chekugadzira nyama inorambidza kushandiswa kwekukura kwehomoni, antibiotics, zvokudya zvakagadziriswa, kana zvipfuwo zvezvibereko mukusimudza mombe
- Mazai ega anodiwa kuti abve kubva kumakungu ayo ari maviri asina ganda uye akasununguka
- Zvokudya zvehupenyu zvinofanira kuchengetwa zvakasiyana kubva kune zvisiri izvo zvekudya zvinokonzerwa munyika imwe chete kana kushandiswa munzvimbo imwe chete
MuUnited States, kuti vashandi vataure nezvokugadziriswa kwe "organic" inofanira kunge ine 95% yezvigadzirwa zvesimba; vanogona kushandisa sarudzo "ine zvinhu zvinokonzerwa nehupenyu" chero bedzi 70% yezvigadzirwa zvinogadzirwa zvakagadzirwa nehupenyu.
Kuti uwane mamwe mashoko, ona izvo United States Dhipatimendi Rezvekurima inofanira kutaura.
Cherechedza kuti vamwe vanoti (ini ndiri kutarisa iwe, Oregon!) Uye nyika dzakawanda dzine maitiro akaoma kupfuura aya kune mazita avo anozivikanwa ekunyora mabhuku, kunyanya, mitemo yakawanda inoda nyika kuti isasunungurwe kune maitiro emakemikari uye zvimwe zvinhu zvinorambidzwa kwemakore mashanu panzvimbo yevatatu.
Sei Uchitsvaga Organic?
Zvokudya zvakasimudzwa zvichienderana nehutano hwehupenyu uye kutakura iyo organic label inosvika, kakawanda kupfuura kwete, ichiri kudhura zvinopfuura zvokudya zvakasimudzwa uchishandiswa nemaindasitiri. Saka nei uchibhadhara zvimwe?
Vanhu vazhinji vachapindura nekuda kwehutano hwavo, kudzivisa kuisa makemikari (nenzira yezvipembenene zvinouraya mishonga) mumitumbi yavo. Uye iyo haisi chikonzero chakaipa zvachose.
Zvizhinji zvenyama zvinotsigira, zvisinei, zvinotarisa nyaya huru. Pfuma yehupfumi, isina huwandu hwehutachiwana huzhinji, hurima varimi uye varimi vemapurazi, uye zvimwe zvokudya zvakasiyana uye zvakasiyana-siyana zvikonzero zvose zvekutarisa kutsvaga zvokudya izvo zvakagadzirwa zvakagadzirwa.
* Iyi nguva yegore yemakore matatu apo purazi inotanga kutevera nzira dzinodhura uye iyo inogona kukohwa kubatsirwa kwekutora zvokudya zvinokonzerwa ne "organic" chimwe chezvigumbuso kune imwe purazi inoshandura zvizere kune maitiro ehupenyu.
