He was In office March 30, 1995 – January 20, 2001. A little out of touch you could say. Yeah if you actually check the official USDA Gov requirements https://www.ams.usda.gov/services/organic-certification/organic-basics it does a bunch of good things. “These methods integrate cultural, biological and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance and conserve biodiversity. Synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation and genetic engineering may not be used.”
Yeah if you look him up he didn’t make it till years later in a random interview. After the USDA he went on to be Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Motion Picture Association of America. His credentials are not that good.
This quote isn’t even saying what everyone here is hearing. It was taken out of context by a libertarian tobacco industry doctor named Henry I Miller to argue against GMO labelling, which Glickman supported. The quote is just saying that organic food isn’t more nutritious and conventional food isn’t poison. Which is obvious and not the intended value of organic food, which is about reducing the damage our food does to the ecosystem.

And the post title then saying “USDA statement” is pathetic. Lemmy’s picking up big sister’s habits so quickly.
