OMRI = Organic Materials Research Institute. This is the
organisation that works hand-in-hand with the US Dept of AG to review
and recommend that products be given Approval for use in Organic
Meat and Vegetable production. They were in existence long before
the USDA had a formal program, and now that USDA has a formal program,
OMRI is used by the USDA to provide continuity.
AZOMITE is registered in the
USA as an anti caking agent. It is GRAS (Generally Recognized As
Safe) by the FDA and may be used in animal feed at up to 2% (weight:weight). |
