Reference information:

According to the current legislation on organic production, products belonging to this category must comply with established rules and are equivalent to the terms "biological products," "ecological products," and other similar names, often abbreviated to "bio" or "eco."

One of the key requirements of this law is that organic production does not allow the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers, pesticides, antibiotics, hormones, and agrochemicals, except for those included in a special list of permitted substances approved by the authorized state body.
