Select one sentence from the text that develops the idea that eating organic produce is healthier than eating conventional produce.
What about the vegetables themselves? Are organic vegetables better for you? To date, there is no proof that organic produce has more vitamins and minerals. However, organic vegetables are healthier in one way: They do not carry harmful chemicals on the skin or inside the fruit or vegetable. When you eat organic, you are not eating the chemicals that conventional farmers used to grow the produce. Perhaps the strongest argument for buying organic produce is that organic farms are kinder to the environment than conventional ones. By using organic fertilizer and controlling pests without chemicals, organic farms create less pollution in water, soil, and air. Also, the farm workers and people who live near the farm aren’t exposed to harmful pesticides.
