The USDA National Organic Program (NOP) sets and enforces consistent national standards for all USDA certified organic products. The NOP regulations (7 CFR 205) cover allowed substances, soil management, crop production, livestock care, and labeling requirements. Every certified organic farm in the US must meet NOP standards — this is your starting point.
