New EU organic logo may cause confusion
Feb 23, 2010 6
A new EU logo for organic products could confuse consumers, says a leading agricultural group.
The European Commission has mandated the use of the new logo for organic products made within the EU – regardless of whether they already meet higher standards from other certifying bodies.
As of July 2010, items produced within the 27 EU states that meet the EU's organic certification standards must bear a leaf-shaped mark chosen from entries to an online competition.
