Argentina was the first country in the Americas to establish its own standards for the certification of organic products that is equivalent to the standards in the European Union and validated by the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements.

Since the USA adopted Organic Standards in the past few years, certification for our country is also effectively organized.

Argentine organic production is controlled by the National Service of Agricultural and Food Health and Quality (SENASA).

SENASA has full authority to supervise all organic production establishments, storage areas, packaging, trade, transportation, and distribution. It also audits the certifying companies to verify certification procedures, whenever it is deemed necessary.

For a food product to be considered organic, and for export to the USA, the production process must be certified by a company which is approved by the United States Department of Agriculture.

Foods meeting the organic standard, including the Armando Mansur Olive Oil, will be labeled with the USDA Organic symbol.
