The Organic Label

Can anyone explain just what the organic label means on a product? Is it grown in all natural soil? Is it just free from pesticides but not fertilizer? Is the fertilizer organic? All these are valid questions that have been on my mind before I go totally organic.

If a food is labeled 100% organic, it means no pesticides, chemical fertilizers, irradiation, or chemical additives are used. I think the farmers have to use organic soil as well, but I'm less sure on that matter.
