I don't think only the Government is at fault over the "organic " certification. The criteria are very strict - far more strict than I would want or be able to adhere to personally but I want the assurance as a consumer that things are what they say on the tin. Organic has to mean something (in this context of certification) and therefore producers have to comply otherwise consumers get let down. We, as consumers, often complain that labelling is misleading so we can't also complain if certifying, and therefore labelling, bodies insist on strict standards.
