Organic farming differs from other farming systems in a number of ways. It favours renewable resources, recycling and returning to the soil the nutrients found in waste products. Where livestock is concerned, meat and poultry production is regulated with particular concern for animal welfare and by using natural foodstuffs. Organic farming respects the environment's own systems for controlling pests and disease in raising crops and livestock and avoids the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilisers, growth hormones, antibiotics, or gene manipulation. Instead, organic farmers use a range of techniques that help sustain ecosystems and reduce pollution.
