US-based food processing company Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) has agreed to acquire natural and organic food producer Specialty Commodities (SCI) for $170m.

The transaction, subject to regulatory approval, will provide Specialty Commodities' suppliers, colleagues and customers with ADM's supply-chain and manufacturing capabilities.

Post completion, Specialty Commodities will become part of ADM's new WILD Flavors and Specialty Ingredients business unit. Its majority owner is Goldner Hawn Johnson & Morrison.

ADM chairman and CEO Patricia A. Woertz said: "One of the ways we are improving returns and reducing the volatility of our earnings is through the expansion of our specialty ingredients portfolio.

"Consumers around the world are demanding higher-quality, better-tasting, healthier foods with clean labels. We are continuing to add new product streams to our portfolio to enhance our capabilities to serve our customers as they respond to this demand."

Specialty Commodities processes and distributes healthy ingredients, including nuts, fruits, seeds, legumes and ancient grains for snack, ice cream, cereal, nutrition bar, health food, bakery, pet food and bird food producers.

Specialty Commodities founding partner and CEO Larry Leitner said: "SCI's suppliers, colleagues and customers will benefit from ADM's world-class innovation, supply-chain and manufacturing capabilities. And with our complementary geographies, similar business models, and shared focus on quality and customers, we see a bright future for the business."

Happy Family, a premium organic food brand for babies, has launched Happy Tot Grow & Shine Organic Toddler Milk.

Happy Tot Grow & Shine Organic Toddler Milk claims to provide an additional source of vitamins and minerals to help grow minds and bodies of infants. It also claims to offer more DHA, ARA and choline than the leading toddler milk.

Developed to address the changing needs of children aged 12 to 24 months, Happy Tot's Organic Toddler Milk is said to offer essential nutrients that regular cow's milk does not.

It features DHA, arachidonic acid (ARA) and choline for brain and eye development, antioxidants vitamin C and E for immune system support, as well as calcium and vitamin D for bone health.

With 23.5 mg of DHA and 47 mg of ARA per 7 fluid ounce (200 mL) serving, Happy Tot Grow & Shine Organic Toddler Milk offers one-third of the expert recommended daily amount of DHA for toddlers, which is essential as a child's brain triples in size from birth to age two.

Happy Family founder, CEO and chief mom Shazi Visram said: "Happy Family is proud to give parents access to an organic toddler milk that is formulated with extra nutrition to aid in brain development.

"Organic toddler milk is a significant milestone for the toddler food industry, and helps parents ensure their active, growing children get the absolute best nourishment during their early years, so they grow into happy and healthy kids," Visram added.

You may think you know everything about your organic food -- but you don't. There are major misconceptions about this $35 billion industry. Here are the five biggest myths about your organic food.

1. Organic products are 100% organic. The United States Department of Agriculture, or USDA, isn't a zero tolerance regulator. For any multi-ingredient "organic" product you pick up, from Wal-Mart to Whole Foods Market , only 95% of its contents have to be certified organic .

For the USDA, it's a matter of convenience and feasibility. Testing for 100% full compliance of anything is a regulator's worst nightmare. Additionally, some ingredients simply don't have organic options on supply. The USDA does note, however, that investigative eaters can take a closer look at the ingredients list; if a specific ingredient is labeled as "organic," then it is. And for those American agricultural complex skeptics, the European Union has its own 95% rule.

2. Organic crops aren't fertilized. There's more to your organic arugula than meets the eye. Fertilizers are used to replace necessary soil components that constant cropping removes. Nitrogen and phosphorous, specifically, are two main ingredients in the fight for fertilizer.

While the USDA forbids farmers to use sewage sludge (yes, this is actually a common non-organic addition ) or synthetic fertilizers on their organic fields, they're free to use most other fertilizer types. Among the more recognizable additives are animal manure, compost (which can include animal materials), and ash.

3. Your organic meat grazed for grub.

Organic meat was once an organic animal. But that doesn't mean that Mr. and Mrs. Moo spent their days grazing in the grass. While the USDA requires that animals spend at least 120 days a year munching away on organic pastures, just 30% of its nutrition must come from the pasture itself. And in the off-season, 100% of its sustenance can come from organic feed.
