What does organic pasta mean

Organic pasta is made from wheat grown using certified organic farming methods. These methods exclude the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and GMOs. Organic farming techniques like crop rotation, natural composting, and the use of organic fertilizers help preserve biodiversity, improve soil health, and reduce environmental impact. Bioitalia only uses wheat from organic agriculture, ensuring no pesticides or GMOs are present.

Is organic pasta better

Organic food is considered better due to less exposure to pesticides and synthetic additives. Additionally, it supports sustainable agricultural practices that have a positive impact on the environment.

Is organic pasta gluten free

Organic pasta made from wheat contains gluten, just like conventional wheat-based pasta. However, Bioitalia also offers a range of organic gluten-free pasta, made with alternative raw materials like corn, rice, or legumes, which meet the same quality and sustainability standards as organic durum wheat pasta.

Does organic pasta have glyphosate

No, organic pasta does not contain glyphosate. Glyphosate is a chemical herbicide widely used in conventional farming but is prohibited in certified organic production. European organic standards ban the use of synthetic pesticides, including glyphosate, at all stages of cultivation.

How is organic pasta different

Organic pasta differs from conventional pasta in terms of farming and production methods. The wheat used is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, and no chemical additives are added during processing. Additionally, the organic supply chain is subject to strict controls to ensure environmental standards, traceability, and resource sustainability are met
