The Codex Proposed Draft Guidelines for the Production,
Processing, Labeling and Marketing of Organically Produced
Foods, Alinorm 97/22A, define organic agriculture as: "A holistic production management system which promotes and enhances
agroecosystem health, including biodiversity, biological cycles, and soil biological activity. It emphasizes the use of management practices in preference to the use of off-farm inputs. This is accomplished by using, where possible, cultural, biological and mechanical methods, as opposed to using synthetic materials, to fulfil any specific function
within the system."
