| Our Mission:
The mission of Pro-Organic Belize is to
educate, inspire, and encourage farmers
regarding the benefits and opportunities of
a sustainable pro-organic system of
agriculture that regenerates the soil, and
to educate consumers on the health benefits
of pesticide-free produce. Objectives and Goals: Through education and supportive services, we help farmers and consumers understand the benefits and opportunities in growing and consuming organically grown food -- toward the essential shift in agriculture from using toxic chemicals that compromise the integrity of the environment, our food, our water, our soil, and our health -- to natural more cost-effective agricultural practices that promotewell-being and sustainability.

Belize Pesticide-Free Consumers Group With
other Belizean organizations concerned
about the environment and food
safety, we sponsored a project to
bring globally recognized authority
Dr. Stephani Seneff to Belize in
April 2017. She testified before the
Pesticide Control Board and spoke to
farmers and the public about the
dangers of using glyphosate on
farmland. It is our intention to
reveal the truth about the
consequences to the environment and
our health toward achieving a ban on
glyphosate. Visit the ban-glyphosate
website for articles, information,
videos, and podcasts toward
understanding this grave threat.
Unlike
many other countries, Belize has not
yet implemented a regular program to
test for toxic residues left on fruits
& vegetables, locally grown or
imported.
