Metabolomics for organic food authentication: Results from a long-term field study in carrots

Highlights • The agricultural origin of carrots could be predicted.• Using yearly harvested samples allowed 100% correct classification of unknowns.• Metabolomic fingerprinting showed potential for organic food authentication.
