Problems With A Nationwide Organic Food Delivery System

Organic food delivery systems are beginning to experience issues that are causing both the retail stores and the farmers problems. Because fresh organic food does not use additives or preservatives, farmers are having a hard time getting fresh food to the stores in time.

Labor shortages within agriculture harvesting are beginning to affect the farms and this issue is hampering the production of the food, as well as the revenue that is generated.

The system that is in charge of delivering organic food to the retail markets is in danger of hurting the revenue that is being generated by this speciality food. The organic food market rakes in close to $27 billion in the United States alone, and with the demand for the market increasing, that number is only going to get higher.

Until the problems regarding farmers having a consistent food supply available and the shortage of certified inspectors are resolved, the revenues generated will be impacted in a negative way.

The organic food delivery system is beginning to create havoc for farmers, retail markets and consumers alike. Labor shortages and inconsistency with supply are beginning to impact the revenues that are generated by certified organic food not being readily available.

Farmers and retail market gurus need to come together to correct this issue so the consumers are not the ones to suffer. Otherwise, the prices are going to skyrocket while the supplies will plummet. No one wants to see this happen to the organic food market.
