  • Materials Approved for Use in Organic Production & Handling The National Organic Standards require that all certified organic producers, processors and handlers use materials that comply with the applicable parts of the Standards [7 CFR Part 205]. The Standards include the National List, which dictates allowed and prohibited substances for use in organic crop and livestock production, as well as substances allowed in organic food processing and handling. The WSDA Organic Program maintains a list of products that we have determined meet the requirements under the National Organic Standards. Manufacturers and distributors of these products have specifically requested a review of their formulations and manufacturing processes. WSDA's list is not a comprehensive list of all materials that are allowed for use in organic agriculture, but WSDA certified organic operators can use products that appear on this list and maintain confidence that the use of these products will not jeopardize certification. If you are certified by a certification agency other than WSDA, check with your certifier prior to the use of any material. WSDA does not provide any guarantee or warranty for materials included on this list, nor do we offer an endorsement to any product.
