No.

The original health of the plant and the health of it's fruit determines how long the produce will last. Neither organic nor non-organic tomatoes can escape the decay process. Much of our food now travels a long way before we select it in our local stores. So when you buy the tomatoes you don't know how long it has been since it was picked.

You can get a longer life of organic or non-organic tomatoes if you buy 'tomatoes on the vine'. The vine helps to keep the tomatoes alive longer. This will work with both types organic and non-organic.

If the food is fresh produce, there is little difference, if any, to how long organic and non-organic food will last. If it is processed food, additives and preservatives in non-organic foods will make them last longer than organic foods.

So, the answer is processed non-organic foods are likely to last longer than organic processed foods because of preservatives added to the non-organic foods.

Yes, organic strawberries canhave a longer shelf life than conventional produce.


This has been confirmed by an article published in 2010 that documents the research conducted by John P. Reganold, of the Department of Crop and Soil Sciences of Washington state University, along with many other members of staff from similar departments.

No, organic food does not last longer. Non organic fruit lasts longer because the food has chemicals in it to keep it good longer.

Unless the non-organic vegetable has been treated to give it a longer shelf life, both would last about the same amount of time.

There should be little difference in how long organic and non-organic fruits last unless the non-organic fruits have been treated with preservatives.

If you mean does it store longer? Yes, usually it does due to preservatives added to it that are not added to organic foods.

Does the soil of organic farming last longer than conventional farming soil?

In true organic farming, the soil is built up with organic matter, which means nutrients in the soil are replenished. In non-organic farming, fertilizers are used to replenish certain nutrients only, while other nutrients may be depleted. In that sense, soil (nutrients in the soil) last longer in organic farming.
