Product Information

A. Ruling Body: Either NOP for the United States National Organic Program standards, or COR for the Canada Organic Regime standards. The OMRI Search currently includes information about products and materials used under these two ruling bodies.

B. Product Code: The product code is OMRI’s internal method used to identify unique products. Three letters are used to identify the company, and four numbers identify each individual product. Note that the same product allowed under NOP and COR standards will have a separate code for each ruling body.

C. Restriction: This section provides critical information about product compliance. In order to meet organic standards, products must be used in a manner that is consistent with the product Use Class and in keeping with the restriction indicated.

D. Expiration Date: OMRI Listed® products are renewed annually, and the expiration date indicates the end of the renewal cycle. If the product is not renewed before this date it will be removed from the list.
