  • Organic Vs Non-Organic Dairy Booklet
    Organic versus Non-organic A NEW EVALUATION OF NUTRITIONAL DIFFERENCE Dairy “ Switching to organic milk consumption will increase the intake of omega-3 fatty acids and was linked to a range of health benefits in mother and child human cohort studies” Contents New evidence 4 At a glance – organic vs non-organic 5 Why is this study different? 6 Key findings 8 Organic farming standards 13 How do organic standards affect milk quality? 14 Can the nutritional quality of organic milk be improved further? 16 Can non-organic, “grass-fed” systems deliver high milk quality? 17 What are saturated, unsaturated and omega-3 fatty acids? 19 Sheepdrove Organic Farm, Berkshire, UK Iodine 22 Why was organic milk lower in iodine? 23 What does this mean for consumers? 24 Into the future… 27 Finding out more 29 References 30 February 2016 New evidence A landmark paper in the “British Journal of Nutrition” concludes that organic milk differs substantially from conventional milk. Organic milk contains significantly higher concentrations of total omega-3 fatty acids, including over 50% more of the nutritionally desirable Very Long Chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DPA and DHA). The study also confirmed previous reports that conventional milk contains 74% more iodine, an essential mineral for which milk is a major dietary source. However in February 2016 , the Organic Milk Suppliers Cooperative (OMSCo) reported that following a successful 2 year project of organic feed fortification, iodine levels in organic milk are now on a par with those in conventional milk. The study also shows that composition differences are closely linked to the outdoor-grazing and conserved forage (hay and silage) based nutritional regimes prescribed by organic farming standards.

  • Use of Rapeseed and Pea Grain Protein Supplements for Organic Milk Production
    AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD SCIENCE IN FINLAND Vol. 88 (1999): 239–252. Use of rapeseed and pea grain protein supplements for organic milk production Hannele Khalili Agricultural Research Centre of Finland, Animal Production Research, FIN-31600 Jokioinen, Finland, e-mail: [email protected] Eeva Kuusela University of Joensuu, Department of Biology, PO Box 111, FIN-80101 Joensuu, Finland Eeva Saarisalo Agricultural Research Centre of Finland, Animal Production Research, FIN-31600 Jokioinen, Finland Marjatta Suvitie Agricultural Research Centre of Finland, North Savo Research Station, FIN-71750 Maaninka, Finland Grass-red clover silage was fed ad libitum. In experiment 1 a duplicated 4 x 4 Latin square design was used. A mixture of oats and barley was given at 8 kg (C). Three isonitrogenous protein supplements were a commercial rapeseed meal (218 g kg-1 dry matter (DM); RSM), crushed organic field pea (Pisum sativum L.) (452 g kg-1 DM; P) and a mixture of pea (321 g kg-1 DM) and organic rapeseed (Spring turnip rape, Brassica rapa L. oleifera subv. annua) (155 g kg-1 DM; PRS). Cows on P and PRS diets produced as much milk as cows on the RSM diet. Milk yield was higher but protein content lower with PRS diet than with diet P. In experiment 2 a triplicated 3 x 3 Latin square design was used. A mixture of oats (395 g kg-1 ), barley (395 g kg-1 ) and a commercial heat-moisture treated rapeseed cake (210 g kg- 1 ) was given at 8 kg (RSC). The second diet (ORSC) consisted (g kg-1) of oats (375), barley (375) and cold-pressed organic rapeseed cake (250).

Dr. Shelley M. Mark, Director Department of Planning and Economic Development State of Hawaii The very title of my talk this morning indicates that Hawaii once did have a taro industry. This will undoubtedly be substantiated by talks which will be given later in the day. However, I would like to point out that insofar as statistics are concerned, Hawaii had over 1,000 acres in taro production in 1948, but by 1963 this acreage had been reduced to 480. Why this reduction in production has occurred, I cannot specifically answer, but perhaps I can point to a few of the reasons. Prior to World War II, taro flour was produced and shipped to the Mainland. As late as 1952 Dr. Glaser, our principal speaker of the day, attested to the fact that "a number of doctors. on the mainland had used the taro flour prior to World War II, principally in allergy work, and still enthusiastically endorse it." Through the closing of the taro flour mill, the demand for taro production would automatically have been decreased, thus reducing the acreage re­ quirements.

  • Comparing Conventional and Organic Dairy
    ACT F S H E ET COMPARING CONVENTIONAL AND ORGANIC DAIRY America’s dairy farmers are dedicated to providing wholesome, high-quality milk and dairy foods. All milk in the U.S. is subject to the same strict federal standards for quality, purity and sanitation. The difference between organically and conventionally produced milk is in the production practices used, rather than the quality or nutritional value of the food.1 UNDERSTANDING SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ORGANIC AND CONVENTIONAL Conventional and organic milk production is very similar in many ways. Whether conventional or organic, farm families have brought the goodness of dairy foods to Americans’ tables for generations. Both conventional and organic milk have the same nine essential nutrients and on both conventional and organic dairy farms, animals are well cared for and proper attention is given to the use of natural resources. The word organic refers to the way farmers grow and raise foods. Milk labeled organic refers to the management practices on the farm where it originated and not the nutritional quality or safety of the milk itself. For dairy foods to be labeled USDA Organic, the dairy farms must meet the requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Natural Organic Program.2 The differences in organic and conventional dairy products are found in the farm management practices. Dairy farm families make different decisions on their dairy farms – choosing what is best for their cows, families, employees and community. Some dairy farm families choose farming methods which allow them to qualify as organic. These farmers are required to follow standards established by the USDA.
