EINNEWS, December 3—Passage by Congress of the new child nutrition act and conditions included in the recently passed food safety bill both highlight the growing U.S. movement toward healthier food, and organic food markets.
With its large consumer base and the world’s highest spending power, the U.S. has both the luxury and resources to pay for organic foods. And because of the fertility of much U.S. land, that food can be produced close to markets where it’s consumed.
A study by the research firm RNCOS anticipates that this trend will continue and will receive growing monetary and regulatory support for state and federal governments.
