Abstract
Organic farmers and ranchers need to follow the National Organic Program (NOP) when treating their crops and animals. While some medications are prohibited, many common substances are allowed. This handout includes a step-by-step process outlining general guidance for those choosing treatments for USDA certified organic animals. This handout accompanies Chapter 2, "Rules and Regulations for Organic and Alternative Livestock" in Organic and Alternative Livestock Health.
