inspectors, certifiers, agricultural professionals, and all
others with an interest in materials for use in organic production.

With sections for crops,
livestock, and
processing and handling, materials are
alphabetically listed and
designated with a status that indicates whether they are Allowed,
Restricted,
or Prohibited under the NOP Rule.
OMRI’s Restricted status indicates use
restrictions that are required for a compliant use of the material
under the NOP Rule. OMRI developed the Restricted status to flag
important
regulatory qualifications for the material in question. The individual
material entries contain information about the use restrictions. |

their
recommendations and accompanying annotations that have not completed a
final regulatory rulemaking.
The Livestock Vitamins and Minerals Appendix

sections under the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and AAFCO
(American Association of Feed Control Officials).
