Organic Imports Verification Act of 2026
The Organic Imports Verification Act of 2026 requires the USDA to annually test specific imported organic feedstuffs for prohibited substances and report the results to Congress. This law targets bulk-shipped organic feed materials that have official import certificates, creating a confidential list of products subject to risk-based testing protocols developed with other federal agencies. If tests detect prohibited substances above allowed limits, the affected shipments must be removed from the organic market and cannot be sold or labeled as organic. The bill also mandates that annual reports detail testing frequencies, methods, results, and any corrective actions taken based on those findings.
