Climate Neutral

 

As one of the first organic exporters in China, NOW Organic does not only produce organic, but also climate neutral products: products that are produced and transported without emitting any extra CO2 into the environment.

The organic agricultural practices introduced by NOW are an effective strategy for mitigating CO2 emissions; which is mainly achieved by sequestering Carbon.

 
 

NOW and its farmers use the following strategies:

  ¡ï Maintain grass and weed strips in orchards
  ¡ïNaturally, the trees in the orchard sequester carbon
  ¡ïApplication of compost
  ¡ïPlanting of legumes in the rotation
  ¡ïSowing of cover crops
   
 
 

Sequestering practices also have positive effects on soil, air and water quality, is beneficial to wildlife and expands food production by increasing yields on degraded crop land.

NOW Organic values agriculture as one of the tools to fight global warming and is continuously looking for newer and more sustainable solutions.
