The Oko-Institut in Freiburg, Germany conducted research and found that organic bread emits 25 percent less CO2 emissions into the air than regular bread.
Some of the change is due to the type of packaging and distribution generally found with organic bread. However, the majority of the change is with the agriculture and production related with organic bread.
Conventional farming emits more than twice as much CO2 as organic farming. The biggest change is related to the energy used to produce synthetic nitrogen fertilizer in conventional farming versus organic farming. The content of organic matter is increased with the organic farming techniques.
