The organic industry is on the move: According to data from the Organic Trade Association, more than 82% of U.S. households purchase organic, more than 75% of all sections on supermarket racks offer organic choices and half of the organic operations are expanding their full-time work.

As we know that if something is there then advantages and disadvantages are definitely there the same as organic food. In this article, we discuss some disadvantages of organic food points.

Disadvantage: The Cost Factor

Let's begin with the most obvious disadvantage of organic food: It nearly always costs more than conventionally raised food. That's little surprise when you consider the large list of price- and production-optimization practices that are common on conventional farms but aren't released on organic farms.

These involve genetically modified organisms, conventional pesticides, herbicides, petroleum-based also sewage-sludge-based manure, antitoxins, increased hormones, and irradiation. Depending on what's being produced, the lack of organic raw elements can ratchet prices up too.

For many customers of organic food, the mandated loss of these practices is deserving of the increased cost. But the stark fact is that many mortals simply can't bear the variation in cost.

There's a different kind of price portion for farmers: The learning curve they need to undergo if they prefer to transition from conventional to organic farming. Suddenly they must master a completely new set of farming policies, with both supervision and experienced workers less readily available than they are for conventional farming.

Possible Disadvantage: Too Costly and Restrictive

Some farms support widely organic production practices but haven't really pursued organic certification, either because they discover the letter of the organic standards to be too limiting, or because of the additional costs included that they don't desire to reach on to the customer. (Becoming USDA Certified Organic can cost everywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.)

While those might be considered disadvantages to the organic label, they're also a great reason to get to know your local farmers. If you stop by the farmer's market or farm stand during a time when it's not very busy, farmers are often happy to discuss their philosophies and farming practices.
