I wonder if livestock producers still feed Arsenic to livestock meant for organic products? It would be a shame if they do this by exploiting the technicality that Arsenic is entered through the feed in "organic form".

Here "organic form" means organic as in organic chemistry, not organic food.

And yet if your arsenic comes from a "natural source", you can feed it to animals and still call them organic.
