This article looks at the costs and benefits of producing organic milk. To be organic, dairy farmers must use organic fertilizer and organic pesticides, and the cows are not given supplemental hormones or antibiotics--that is, the milk must be produced without chemicals, hormones, or antibiotics (Hannon 2009). The organic versus nonorganic world can be confusing. Is it worth it? It is certainly a personal decision, with health, economics, and values coming into play. Knowing more about food production and standards is critical: What are the health implications of food additives? What do studies say about the long-term implications of pesticide use, etc.? Thinking about what one eats, where the food comes from, and how it is produced is complex, but worthy of attention. (Contains 2 figures.)
