I used to work in a place that grew their own rice, had chickens and a lot of vegetables and greenhouses and hydroponics.
THe eggs were sold as "organic" as were the vegetables - but they would not have met EU standards - the chickens were battery as well.
THere are virtually no laws that government animal welfare in Thailand and those that exist are not enforced. (see pigs being transported y road)
THe legal definition of "organic" varies from country to country - but basically requires that land hasn't had chemicals on it for so many years.....in Thauiland I've never heard of anyone being checked for that....it just means they don't use as much as the next guy (see the adverts on Thai TV!!)
