A recent court decision ruled that the OFPA does not allow synthetic (non-natural) ingredients to be used in foods labeled organic and that the act must ensure a strong standard under which milk from dairy cows is converted to an organic product.
As stated by the USDA, the OFPA and The National Organic Program (which is a marketing branch of the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service), agricultural products labeled as `organic' are required to have originated from farms or handling operations certified by a state or private agency that has been accredited by the USDA.
