Summary
This web-based tool provides official input lists for organic farming, including Switzerland and several European countries such as Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands and Sweden. It covers a wide range of inputs such as fertilizers, substrates, plant protection products, cleaning and disinfection agents, veterinary products and feed additives. The platform enables farmers, advisors and inspectors to search for approved commercial products and verify compliance with organic standards. The lists are compiled by FiBL in collaboration with national organisations and are regularly updated. The tool supports decision-making and ensures compliance in daily farm management. It is particularly relevant for organic farmers and advisors. As input lists are a key element of organic regulation systems, the approach is widely applicable across Europe. Key recommendations include systematically checking input approval before use and relying on the database for the most up-to-date information.
