    Deep Dive: How do you know if you’re really buying an organic product?

    The organic industry in Australia is worth $2.3 billion – and insiders have accused producers of falsely labelling products, prompting a new bill that was introduced by the Coalition last year.

    How can we really know the journey a product is taking before it arrives on the shelf at the supermarket? And if the labelling isn’t accurate, should we just give up on buying organic all together?

    In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by Erin Turner, chief executive of the Consumer Policy Research Centre, to explain how the government can better regulate the sector and how it could change what’s on our shelves.
