Cultivation and production methods and resources are the guidelines that organic farms must meet. Organic farms have to be free of conventional farming-type inputs and outputs for three years before organic farming can begin. Nothing chemical, genetically engineered, off-site or synthetic may be present or used since inspections and paperwork will check for exclusively on-sire, organic inputs and outputs when organic farming operations begin.
