The United States and Switzerland signed an agreement that will expand markets for organic farmers, reduce hurdles for small and medium-size businesses, and deliver more organic products to consumers. The agreement states that, effective immediately, organic products certified in the United States or Switzerland may be sold as organic in either country. The organic equivalency arrangement between the two nations will streamline organic trade, strengthen organic agriculture and support jobs and businesses on a global scale.
