NOP maintains a list of certified synthetic pesticides and while I haven't compared I'm sure it's more restrictive than what the usda allows by default
So maybe it has some approved synthetic pesticides, however the main goal is to use no pesticides, or the naturally occurring ones, and overall irs much safer to eat produce that's organic.
Of course, if it's actually truly organic. But tests of organic vegetables in grocery stores have shown pesticides the same as the other vegetables, indicating that in some cases there's no difference, except in price. I'm nearly 70 and haven't died yet and can't afford to spend double for a questionable product.
Even organic has pesticides. You just have to pay more for it. Just wash the veggies better.
