CERTIFIED ORGANIC SUPPLY
Organic Medicago sativa Whole Herb Powder
Organic alfalfa whole herb powder, milled without carrier. The catalogue already carries an alfalfa whole-herb juice powder; this is the plain milled herb, which keeps the fibre fraction the juice powder removes.

Buyer Decision Guide
Alfalfa is bought for its fibre and protein matrix as often as for colour. Three points separate the juice powder from the whole-herb powder.
- Material: whole herb milled to powder, retaining the fibre fraction.
- Not a juice powder: no fraction has been removed or reconstituted.
- Mesh: 80 mesh as standard; other cuts reviewed against your process.
- Moisture, ash, heavy metals and microbiology reported per batch.
- Organic certificate and lot transaction certificate supplied with the shipment.
- COA, specification sheet and safety data sheet accompany each shipment.
How This Grade Differs
The alfalfa whole-herb juice powder already listed is a different product: juice extraction removes much of the fibre and concentrates the soluble fraction, so the two are not interchangeable on a weight-for-weight basis.
Quality and Documentation
Identity, mesh, moisture, ash, heavy metals and microbiology are checked per lot, with the organic certificate filed against the batch record.
Regulatory Note
Organic grade: the material is sourced from certified organic growers and processors. The organic certificate and the lot transaction certificate are provided with each shipment on request. The certifying body and the standard applied differ by origin lot, so confirm the standard your market requires (for example NUS/NOP-type, EU 2018/848 or China Organic) before ordering. Certification is held by the producing operation and travels with the lot.
