What is Organic? The word ’Organic’ means ’living’‚ and in practical terms‚ this means natural food that is grown and processed without chemical fertilizers‚ pesticides‚ herbicides or fungicides. Nothing unnatural is allowed so there are no growth hormones‚ antibiotics‚ preservatives‚ dyes‚ chemical coatings or irradiation allowed. There is no genetic engineering allowed in organic foods. Organic food is nothing else but good pure nutritional food - the way it used to be. Toxic overload

Before I go on about the use of fertilizers in organic farming‚ you must first understand what organic farming is. The simplest way to describe organic agriculture is agricultural production without the use of synthetic chemicals (fertilizers‚ pesticides‚ antibiotics‚ etc). For crop production‚ organic materials such as compost and manure are used to maintain soil organic matter and as sources of nutrients. Nitrogen-fixing as well as pest resistant plant varieties are utilized. The incorporation

with supply and demand. But this is not a solution‚ it is instead almost adding to the problems our society faces today. This is where organic farming comes in. Although it may be hard to change society’s long standing opinion that mass-production by any means necessary is the right way to go‚ organic farmers are now making a larger appearance on the world stage. Organic farming can be the solution‚ and it is possible to feed a booming population through this type of farming if three simple things are

ESTERIFICATION SYNTHESIS OF PEAR OIL One of the major uses of Esterification (C(=O)-C-R) is forming compounds with different odors which can be used to make different synthetic and natural flavorings. Using the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds‚ an ester was catalyzed from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol‚ producing an odor similar to that of pear oil. The mechanism of this Fischer- Esterification process is outlined as follows:

Gareth Morgan’s Metaphors of Organizations Introduction Metaphors help simplify complex concepts by integrating an already know term to a new term‚ therefore making it more comprehensible to the readers. In his book‚ Images of Organization‚ Gareth Morgan (2006) simply applied metaphors in bringing to our understanding the different perspectives and faces of organizations (Bottero‚ K‚ 2013) This paper would pinpoint and attempt to examine the major metaphoric postulations of
