You must have noticed the stickers on the fruit in the markets, but you probably don’t know what they mean.
Here’s What You Need to Know:
- If the sticker has a 4-digit code starting with the numbers 3 or 4, the product was cultivated in the second half of the 20th century and artificial fertilizer was used.
- If the sticker contains a 5-digit code starting with the number 9, the product was cultivated traditionally for a long time, so these products are organic. No fertilizers or pesticides were used.
- A 5-digit code starting with the number 8 is a GMO product.
Now, being aware of the stickers and their meaning, you will choose your fruit more carefully. Share this information with people so everyone will know what kind of fruit they are buying.
