What is the OCS?
The Organic Content Standard (OCS) is an international, voluntary standard that sets requirements for third-party certification of certified organic input and chain of custody. The goal of the OCS is to increase organic agriculture production.
Objectives of the OCS

- Provide companies with a trusted tool to communicate organically grown content claims to the industry.
- Provide organic fiber farmers with broad access to the global organic market for their products.
