NOP: Organic integrity in the supply chain
The USDA Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) National Organic Program (NOP) protects the integrity of USDA organic products throughout the world, so consumers can trust the organic label.
Consumers are protected by a global organic control system that includes: strict standards; certifier accreditation; farm and business certification and enforcement. Accredited certifiers, inspectors, and organic handlers play a vital role in protecting the integrity of organic products from farm to market in complex supply chains.
