These chemicals and toxic materials can remain on foods long after they are harvested and can pose health threats to you and your family. Conventionally produced foods are cheaper than organic foods. It is caused by organic foods tightly controlled to be free of chemicals, using natural compost instead of hormones or additives so it takes more time and money but finally produce quality products more healthy.
