The Organic Trade Association (OTA) is a membership-based business association that focuses on the organic business community in North America. OTA's mission is to promote ethical consumerism by promoting and protecting the growth of organic trade to benefit the environment, farmers, the public, and the economy. OTA is a member of The International Federation of Organic Agricultural Movements (IFOAM) and The International Working Group on the Global Organic Textile Standard.At the time of its conception, the Organic Trade Association (OTA), formerly known as the Organic Foods Production Association of North America (OFPANM), was one of the few certifiers for the organic food industry. The original goals of the organization included creating a common, standardized image of organic produce in the marketplace, creating guidelines for organic foods, recommending and evaluating other certification programs, and leading the industry by example. Their biggest goal of creating a universal definition of what organic standards looked like would become highly contentious amongst grass-roots farmers and big business leaders. One issue that was tabled in 1988 was whether equitable labor was integral to organic standards. Creating a definition required synergy between science and consumer behaviors. As well as a cross-examination of previous definitions that would form a baseline.
