Question juridique clé
Whether organic food may be labeled 'biological' despite involuntary GMO traces below 1%
Solution extraite
Yes, organic labeling remains permissible if GMO traces do not exceed 1% by mass and result from involuntary contamination, with proper documentation.
Motifs extraits
The organic ordinance must be read together with the GMO-labeling rules in the food ordinance; the 1% tolerance applies equally to organic products, while only deliberate GMO use is prohibited.
