A lot depends on what exactly you’re trying to find out about organic farming.

You can narrow your search results by adding to the search words site:.gov or site:.org

Federal Government sites might be useful:
http://www.epa.gov/agriculture/torg.html
http://www.ers.usda.gov/topics/natural-resources-environment/organic-agriculture.aspx#.UkPK2YbktNM

State Government sites (using an example from California here. just add your state name to the search then add site:.gov)
http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/is/i_&_c/organic.html

Non-profits might be useful (always check out the “about us” sections to determine the organizational bias or slant) http://www.nofa.org/
http://www.ccof.org/
http://www.worldwatch.org/node/4060

Don’t be shy about asking for help from a librarian in the library or through a chat service found on your local library Website.
