It's from local farms, not injected with anything. Please note that worms can literally break any toxic molecule down to tiny humic substances that are considered organic by regulatory agencies

not claiming to be a expert here but not sure i buy that dng

i think your referring to plant toxins which is true but not man made toxins like , lets say glyphosate 

 

regulatory agencies , over time keep moving the goal posts / safe levels 

which many say zero should be the safest level while others say currant days make zero impossible  

 

if a farm isn't claiming they are a organic operation then there use of anything is possible i guess 

 

depending on what your looking for it can be very hard to find organic inputs produced in this country 

many in oz use the word " organic " very loosely , & in some cases i'm not sure some understand what 

the word organic is meant to mean when they plaster it over there products 

 

companies are using manures , used potting mix , saw dust & green crop / silage 

the manures could come from any animal from anywhere , used potting mix could have been used for anything

saw dust could be treated pine & green crop silage could be the stuff people put in there green waste bin full of 

all kinds of sprays

I agree with everything you've mentioned, I was just talking about the science of worms and their gut biota which has the ability to tear apart molecules to their most simplest of forms. We need to remediate polluted areas and this is one way to do it... I've looked through the NASAA guidelines, farmers and producers have to demonstrate regenerative practices that encourage biodiversity. They are extremely strict about this. There is no evidence to suggest NASAA has moved lowered their regulatory standards, however I have heard a new "regenerative" certification is being developed at the UN level due to OMRI and ACO and others considering certifying some hydroponic cultivators. If you see something grown or produced to NASAA standards, it's organic, no doubt. Big Bio are certified organic under NASAA standards. Pedro, too true, if you know what you're doing, home made vermicompost will always be superior to anything out there.

If ya want organic, you need to source the shit from your own property

Many scientific journals written on the subject of remediation with worms: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/29321101/

ok cool dng , thanks for the insight & link
