AMS Proposes Changes to National Organic List

The Agricultural Marketing Service is proposing to make changes to its National List of substances allowed and prohibited in organic products, it said. The proposed rule would add elemental sulfur to the National List for use in organic livestock production. It would also reclassify potassium acid tartrate from a non-agricultural substance to an agricultural substance and require the organic form of the ingredient when commercially available. Comments are due June 29.
