Ecological standards Organic meat is meat that comes from an animal that has been raised on a farm free of insecticides, pesticides or chemicals on the land in the last 3 years. It is effectively the original method of animal husbandry, as our ancestors did when macro farms did not exist.
Organic farming: this is a certificate from the European Union and guarantees that the product meets organic standards. Rules are established that ensure the well-being of the animals, in terms of the conditions in which they live, access to open air or pastures or the treatment of sick animals. The animals are fed with 100% organic feed, which eliminates any type of chemical residue that could pass into the meat.
These feeds come from the same farm (or holding) where the animals live or from the same region.
The young of mammals are fed with natural milk, preferably maternal.Natural methods of reproduction must be used, although artificial insemination is permitted and animal cloning or embryo transfer is prohibited.
As a result, a pure, authentic, intense and nuanced flavor is obtained that constitutes a healthy food, free of harmful elements, without contributing to environmental pollution and that guarantees all this thanks to its ecological certificate issued by the ministry.The only elements that are part of this new and exclusive product, unique in the world, are organic wet salt (from Mediterranean salt flats), meat from organic farming and the wisdom and experience acquired over the years of the master cured meat makers who follow the entire process.
