Most people that buy organic produce do so because they want to have some assurance that it was raised without potentially toxic chemicals. At least in a grocery store, produce from all over the world can contain some evil pesticides and less than wholesome growing techniques.
In general, organic and organically raised produce is not necessarily any different in taste or even quality. BUT, it is also not laced with pesticides, residues of herbicides, and whatever else. Not just a "feel good" thing, either.

The same goes for produce loaded with pesticides or herbicides.
