Why go organic?

The global industrialised food system is made up of a handful of ‘mega-corporations’ dictating food production and distribution. Swapping support to organic farming methods allows a shift of power, giving the consumer a voice in how money flows through the system. Much of the mass, non-organic farming methods used in today’s food production use an unnecessary amount of ‘preventative’ antibiotics (as opposed to a natural method of managing livestock such as healthy diet, clean housing and rotational grazing).

Organic produce, like Biona Organic Chick Peas In Tomato Sauce, is as nature intended: fresh, vibrant and holding onto its vital nutrients. As an alternative agricultural system, organic farming is shown to be ‘more profitable and carries less risk of low returns’, This collaboration between humans and the environment maximises the natural properties of our planet, capitalising on the soil’s natural capacity for storing carbon. And by switching to organic, your 5-a-day counts for more goodness with recent studies showing ‘meaningful differences, with a range of antioxidants being “substantially higher” – between 19% and 69% – in organic food.’

I've read that the harvesting of tomatoes, particularly in southern Italy, often involves slave labour. How are the tomatoes in this product harvested?

All of the organic and sustainable tomatoes found in Biona Organic Chick Peas In Tomato Sauce are mechanically harvested, which means at no point throughout the supply chain is forced labour used.
