Content

Organic farming is still a growing. More consumers are aware of organic production methods and demand organic products. However, this growth is accompanied by negative aspects, too. One of the main challanges for the future development of the organic farming movement is to remain authentic and to guarantee its values.
We will focus on initiatives that favor a desireable development of organic farming in the future.
