how would i set up this scientific experiment about organic food?

My hypothesis is: Organic food is known to contain more nutrients, minerals, and vitamins than conventional farming crop.

can you describe a general plan for designing this experiment.

A hypothesis is unknown (and to be proved). Organic food may not have more nutrients, mineral and vitamins and may have less. You must keep an open mind. Organic foods must meet certain criteria to be so labeled and you should check that out. I believe they use little or no artificial fertilizer or pesticides. Because the foods you wish to study are likely mostly hydrocarbons, you could weigh equal samples after squeezing out all the juice then burn the samples without adding contaminants then compare the ash (minerals). Also boil away equal amounts of juice before burning. You could also compare what goes into the soil at organic and inorganic farms and reason that the vegetables will take up whatever is available for growth. I don’t want to make it sound too easy (it likely is not).
