Supply Of NonGMO Grain Connecticut

By Scott Parker


The demand for natural food is likely to increase as a result of the recent commitment to GMO labeling by 2018. Companies that sell genetically altered products will be forced to reformulate their products with nonGMO grain Connecticut. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate between the modified from unmodified food thus one needs to have ways of identifying and differentiating them.

For identification of the unaltered grain, the first thing is to have a third party non-GMO verification. The person should have certifications such as genetically unaltered food project or identity preservation. The person verifying should be independent. The identity protection certificate should be accompanied by proof such as modified food test results. The supplier should have an efficient IP system to be able to separate the goods to avoid contamination. The product should also be traceable to enable to determine their origin, and in case of any contamination, the source or the point of the disease can be identified.

Many of these non-GM grains are brought into Connecticut from other countries such as North America thus the suppliers should have a comprehensive perspective of knowledge. They should be conversant with the laws and regulation of GMO in the countries such as Asia and Europe where they get their raw materials. The quality of products must be ensured by the manufacturing companies.

A well-experienced supplier is necessary for the business to go smoothly. Someone who is involved in the supply of organic products for a long period is recommended for the job as they are easier to work with because they ensure no delays. This means that if they delay the products spoils and that means losses. They also know how to identify and preserve the non-GMO grains.

Early planning is usually necessary for any business. This may involve telling the person supplying about what you require. For the business to run smoothly, then you should have a reliable supply of raw material. Trying to beat the market by making immediate purchases may lead to inadequate supply and sometimes very expensive.

The benefits of these grains so many and are also very well known. These grains have wholesome nutrition and are known to have so medicinal or therapeutic properties. They have an advantage over the modified ones in that they have the original genes without interspecies DNA. They preserve the biodiversity of their species. The disadvantage is that they are prone to pest and diseases since they have no genetic enhancement and also they may take a while before they mature.

The main challenges in the business of unmodified grains are mostly the challenges that face many farmers such as shortage of supply, inclement weather leading to poor crops. Conventional farmers are earning high prices for the modified thus making it difficult to increase production of non-GM crops such as soybeans. There are also threats of contamination by the modified since very few farmers go through the non-GMO verification.

Before starting of the naturally unaltered grains business make sure that you market your products. This should be as well before looking for the non-GMO certificate. You should be ready to pay the cost of certification and testing.
