Our Standards

 

 

The Organic Food Federation

The Federation standards are based on the Council Regulation 2092/91 which is the official definitive legal standard within the EU.

In areas where there are no official definitive legal standards within the EU we have developed our own private standards which we believe reflect organic principles.

Our standards are divided into individual books which can be downloaded separately through our
Downloads Section.  You may require a selection of books depending on your operation and we have arranged them into appropriate sets.

You can download a copy of the Standards here by selecting a set below or you can access the original compendium through the DEFRA website by clicking
here. They are in Acrobat Reader (.pdf) format and contained within a "Zip" archive file.
