USDA TO BAN CLONED FOODS FROM ORGANICS

Last month, the USDA proposed that the offspring of cloned animals

could be considered " organic " . But last week, the USDA's National

Organic Standards Board voted 12-0 to ban foods from cloned animals

and their progeny from the organic market. Regulators apparently

recognize, after being flooded with complaints from organic consumers,

that cloning is incompatible with the Organic Foods Production Act and

is prohibited under the National Organic Program regulations. The real

difficulty will be in tracking these animals, particularly 2nd and 3rd

generation offspring of cloned animals.
