Guarantees
  • Stricter than EU 2018/848 (lower nitrogen inputs, full-farm conversion, social standards).
  • Annual on-site inspection.
  • Fair-pricing requirements for member farmers.
  • Accredited certifiers meet the IFOAM Norms and the IFOAM Family of Standards.
  • Independent peer review of certifier governance, inspection rigor, and conflict-of-interest controls.
  • Verified absence of GMO ingredients (with action thresholds, not zero tolerance).

  • Tracing and segregation across the supply chain.
Does NOT
  • Membership-based — only farms that join the Naturland association can use the mark.

  • Doesn't mean organic — Non-GMO products can use synthetic pesticides and fertilizers freely.
