Luomumerkinnöihin

Luomumerkinnöihin refers to organic labels or certifications in Finland. These labels are used to indicate that a product has been produced according to strict organic farming and processing standards. The primary organic label in Finland is the green leaf symbol, which is a European Union-wide organic logo. Products bearing this logo have met the EU's organic farming regulations, which prohibit the use of most synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and artificial additives in food processing.

In addition to the EU organic logo, Finland also has its own national organic certification system. Products certified under the Finnish system also display the green leaf but may have additional national markings or details. These certifications ensure transparency and traceability throughout the supply chain, from farm to fork. Consumers can trust that products with luomumerkinnöihin have undergone rigorous checks to verify their organic status. The purpose of these labels is to help consumers make informed choices and support sustainable agricultural practices that are better for the environment and animal welfare. It provides assurance that the product meets specific criteria for organic production, contributing to a healthier ecosystem and potentially healthier food.
