NutriTech Animal Solutions is proud to announce a significant expansion of our organic certification program, designed to help more Texas farmers successfully transition to organic feed systems. Ria Harman, NutriTech's founder and organic certification expert, will lead the expanded program to support sustainable agriculture throughout the region.
Program Expansion Overview
The expansion of NutriTech's organic certification program represents a major milestone in our commitment to sustainable agriculture in Texas. Ria Harman, who has over 15 years of experience in organic feed systems and USDA certification processes, recognized the growing demand for comprehensive certification support among regional farmers and ranchers.
"We've seen tremendous interest from Texas farmers who want to transition to organic production systems," explains Ria Harman. "However, the certification process can be complex and overwhelming. Our expanded program is designed to provide the hands-on guidance and support that farmers need to successfully navigate the transition while maintaining operational efficiency."

- Pre-Certification Assessment: Comprehensive evaluation of current farming practices and transition readiness
- Transition Planning: Customized 3-year transition plans with milestone tracking

Expertise and Leadership
Ria Harman's extensive background in organic agriculture and animal nutrition makes her uniquely qualified to lead this program expansion. Her hands-on experience with USDA certification requirements, combined with deep knowledge of Texas farming conditions, provides clients with practical, actionable guidance throughout the certification process.

Regional Impact
The program expansion is expected to serve over 200 additional farms across Texas, with particular focus on supporting small to medium-sized operations that may lack internal resources for managing the certification process.
