[QUOTE="Bluestem, post: 298888, member: 3269"] Organic and all natural are two different animals. Organic is regulated by the USDA NOP's. I'm not sure that All natural is regulated by the USDA in a Farmer/Ranchers point of view. I'll have to research this further. There are restrictions on the use of manure in organic production. I do not think it matters from what type animal. But the manure would have to come from organic production. Think of it this way- There are two production methods- so called "conventional" and so called "organic" and the two should never mix, from a organic point of view. Where as conventional can use the best from both production methods. A lot of folks seem to think that organics is easy. Throw seed on the ground and watch it grow. Let the animals run free and pick them up in a few years. Its actually a highly managed production method. There is very little good university research in the field so a lot is learn as you go. If you don't like to think outside the box and don't have the ability to see everything outside the box when you get there, you may want to wait a few years before jumping in. [/QUOTE]
