Organic Content Standard (OCS)

The Organic Content Standard (OCS) is an international, voluntary standard that provides "Chain of Custody verification" for materials originating on a farm certified to recognized national organic standards. The standard is used to verify organically grown raw materials from the farm to the final product.

Individual sites are certified by independent, third-party certification bodies using annual audits. Material is tracked from the farm to the final product using Transaction Certificates (TC).
