Well if you're going to sell a product labeled as organic then you should have to prove it is truly organic. Otherwise people will use non organic techniques to increase production and label it organic to sell at a higher price than non organic but lower than true organic in order to dominate a market

and yet if you are going to sell a gmo you don't have to label it all, or do anything except accept your subsidies from the farm bill

At one point 'organic' was just 'food'.
I understand why certification is required to be labeled organic, the problem is the other guys (the GMOs) are getting subsidies.
One is paying extra, the other is getting paid.
It's an issue.
