What are the certification bodies for organic food producers ?
Thanks.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Here is a search page for USDA accredited certifying agents:

Do you have info on certification bodies, instead of certifying agents ?
In the United States, any food labeled as organic must be certified by the USDA, so I suppose that would be the certifying body.
Here is a PDF of foreign organic certifying agents:
