	Naturland Germany · Tier 2 Trusted	? 'Natural' (NOT a certification) Worldwide · Tier 4 Marketing	Orgánico SAGARPA / SENASICA (Mexico) Mexico · Tier 1 Gold	NASAA Certified Organic (Australia) Australia · Tier 2 Trusted
What it means	A German farmers' association whose private organic standard is stricter than the EU baseline. Covers food, aquaculture, textiles, and cosmetics. Recognised globally.	The word 'natural' on packaging is a marketing term, not a certification. In most jurisdictions there's no legal definition, no standard, and no inspection. A product labelled 'natural' can contain synthetic ingredients, pesticides, GMOs, and artificial flavours.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	National Association for Sustainable Agriculture, Australia. One of seven Australian Department of Agriculture-approved certifiers. IFOAM-accredited; certifies organic and biodynamic produce.

Guarantees	Stricter than EU 2018/848 (lower nitrogen inputs, full-farm conversion, social standards). Annual on-site inspection. Fair-pricing requirements for member farmers.	Nothing. It is not a certification and there is no body verifying anything.	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.	Compliance with the Australian National Standard for Organic and Bio-Dynamic Produce. Annual on-site inspection. Biodynamic certification option.
Does NOT	Membership-based — only farms that join the Naturland association can use the mark.	Doesn't mean organic. Doesn't mean pesticide-free. Doesn't mean GMO-free. Doesn't mean ethically produced. Some markets (e.g. the US FDA on food, EU on cosmetics) place very limited restrictions on the word, but enforcement is weak.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).
