ARLINGTON, Mass. — Global Organics Ltd., a leading supplier of certified organic and non-GMO ingredients announced that its Native® organic cane sugar from the Green Cane Project® in Brazil has achieved verification from the Non-GMO Project.
Certified organic ingredients are non-GMO, as organic food ingredients are not allowed to use genetically modified organisms in any stage of production or handling and measures are taken to prevent GMO contamination. Non-GMO Project verification gives an extra layer of protection by requiring additional ongoing testing of risk ingredients at critical control points. Global Organics is a supporter of the Just Label It campaign believing consumers have the right to know what is in their food.
The Green Cane Project is an international award-winning project that proves sustainability can be achieved in large-scale farming. The Project has eliminated harmful processes and inputs, such as cane burning and use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers and created greenways to restore biodiversity.
