Maybe it's different in the US, but in Denmark, organic means no artificial fertilizers as well as no pesticides.
In the US, it means they use different pesticides.
Farming without pesticides would be an excercise in absurdity. There are natural options but “no pesticides” isn’t a thing.
It's possible, I'm not sure, but there are definitely heavy restrictions on the pesticides you can use to call your product organic.
