The label "organic" simply means they can charge twice as much for the same produce. It's a marketing ploy and nothing more.

I beg to differ. I am an organic farmer. This movement is growing exponentially. People want to know how their food is grown and what herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers have been used to grow it. I use no chemicals on my produce. And people are willing to pay a premium for that.
