If you want to certify your livestock operation(s) as organic, you will need to complete an application form. Th is guide was developed to assist you in completing that application by explaining just what information certifiers want and why it is required.

If you raise crops or provide pasture to feed your organic livestock, you will also need to complete a basic farm application. While some certifiers combine crops and livestock into a single application form, most use separate documents. For an example of a completed crop farm application, see
ATTRA's Organic System Plans: Field and Row Crops and Pasture and Range Systems.
