Does NOT
  • Membership-based — only farms that join the Naturland association can use the mark.
  • Same standard as the EU Leaf — not stricter.
  • PGS-based — the inspection model is community peer-review rather than third-party. Strong for domestic markets, less recognised by the EU/USA than third-party schemes.
  • Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).
