Organic food delivery systems are beginning to experience issues that are causing both the retail stores and the farmers problems. Because fresh organic food does not use additives or preservatives, farmers are having a hard time getting fresh food to the stores in time. Labor shortages within agriculture harvesting are beginning to affect the farms and this issue is hampering the production of the food, as well as the revenue that is generated.

Organic food companies are becoming a permanent fixture on the retail market. The different companies selling organic food include nationwide chains, internet stores, and local farmers markets. With local markets, the organic food delivery system breakdown is not as prevalent. The internet stores most often come directly from a farm, so many of them are not experiencing as much of an impact. However, the retail stores that are out in the market are seeing a decrease in sales.

Since organic food uses no preservatives, the organic food delivery system makes it harder for the produce to get to stores on time before a breakdown of product begins. As retail stores are forced to turn away bad produce and products, the affect on farmers dependent upon the revenues becomes dire.
