| − | + | Many factors are considered before coffee can be given an organic certification such as the kind of fertilizer used. In an organic farm, it has to be ONE HUNDRED % natural made from coffee pulp, general compost, chicken manure, and bocachi, among other products.

The USDA has their agents go to coffee farms and production sites to validate whether they should be issued an organic certification. For a farm to be organically certified, it must not use chemicals on crops for the next 3 years preceding the harvest due for certification. This ensures that only crops grown as organic coffee can lay claim to its standing as "ONE HUNDRED % natural.". |

Workers who are exposed to them acquire medical conditions which they or else would not have developed if these substances were non-toxic. Beans that were sprayed are water washed after they are harvested, sending the water with the toxins washed off from the beans to rivers, lakes, streams or whatever water source it originated from; this water will even be used to irrigate the soil once again. | Workers who are exposed to them acquire medical conditions which they or else would not have developed if these substances were non-toxic.
