IFOAM對於有機農業的定義
中文翻譯(來源于IFOAM網站,原簡體):
有機農業是一種能維護土壤、生態系統和人類健康的生產體系,她遵從當地的生態節律、生物多樣性和自然迴圈,而不依賴會帶來不利影響的投入物質。有機農業是傳統農業、創新思維和科學技術的結合,她有利於保護我們所共用的生存環境,也有利於促進包括人類在內的自然界的公平與和諧共生。

It relies on ecological processes, biodiversity and cycles adapted to local conditions, rather than the use of inputs with adverse effects. Organic agriculture combines tradition, innovation and science to benefit the shared environment and promote fair relationships and a good quality of life for all involved.
