The NOSB is a volunteer Federal Advisory Board that makes recommendations to USDA’s National Organic Program on a variety of issues involving the production, handling, and processing of organic products. Their biannual meetings and calls for public comment represent invaluable opportunities for the industry to advocate for key production inputs along with other policy needs. In this Virtual Town Hall learn how IFPA, through the Organics Committee, is providing a much-needed voice for the organic fresh produce industry in order to support sustained, long-term growth of organic fruit and vegetable production, and how individual organizations can do the same.
