Does NOT	Doesn't itself mean organic — pair with an organic mark for the full picture.	Mark is trademark-protected.	OPAC (peer-review) certified products are valid in Brazil but typically not accepted for export — exporters need third-party (e.g. IBD).	Doesn't mean organic — Non-GMO products can use synthetic pesticides and fertilizers freely.
