The federal Canadian organic standard, mandatory on any agricultural product sold across provincial borders or imported as 'organic'.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	The mandatory mark for any pre-packaged organic food sold in the EU. The 'Euro-Leaf' is a stylised leaf made of twelve white stars on a green background.
