The agricultural boom delivered a massive rise in the number of producers. The non-regulated state of has essentially allowed manufacturers and distributors to slap impressive-looking labels on their products, thus marketing and selling these products however they please. Quality manufacturers know that an industry without rules and regulations will quickly become overrun with scams, false advertising, and out-and-out lies, which pose several challenges for consumers to make educated purchases or receive quality, reliable information. Good, honest companies with quality products are rapidly seeking ways to overcome the competition and rise to the top, and most of these companies are accomplishing this through third-party testing.
