Certified Non-GMO by AGW

Certified Non GMO by AGWCertified Non-GMO by AGW is the only food label in North America that helps consumers avoid genetically modified food ingredients and support high-welfare, environmentally sustainable food animal production.

Available to farmers, ranchers and food producers, the Certified Non-GMO by AGW label guarantees food products are not only produced without genetically engineered/modified feed, supplements or ingredients, but also come from animals raised according the highest animal welfare standards in the industry, Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW.

Certified Non-GMO by AGW represents a cost-effective way for producers to meet consumer expectations. While similar certifications can cost farmers upwards of $3,000 per year, Certified Non-GMO by AGW is significantly more affordable at only $550 plus auditing expenses.

We’re also the only Non-GMO label that involves meaningful testing protocols for the absence of GMOs—not even Certified Organic offers this assurance!

As public concern about the labeling of genetically modified (also known as genetically engineered/GE or genetically modified organisms/GMO) food products continues to grow, the market for non-GMO products is surging. As a result, high-profile companies like Campbell Soup Company, General Mills, Del Monte and PepsiCo have all recently announced non-GMO labeling initiatives. According to Packaged Facts–a leading publisher of market research in the food and beverage sector–forecasts a near doubling of the global market for non-GMO foods and beverages by 2019. With independent annual audits to ensure compliance, Certified Non-GMO by AGW provides farmers, ranchers and food producers with a robust, trusted and highly competitive Non-GMO label claim.
