Abstract

Organic farming encompasses the ideals of conserving biodiversity, ecological balance, and protection of agricultural resources during crop production operations. Due to multiple societal concerns about food safety, animal welfare, and environmental issues, consumers’ demand for organic food products is quickly growing. The increase in popularity of organic agriculture and products is driven by both market demand and federal subsidies and has proven to be economically profitable both locally and globally due to trade and job opportunities associated with it. Despite the unrelieved economic crisis, the remarkable demand for organic foods and the systematic development of the organic farming industry in European and North American countries have driven them to the mainstream in both domestic and global organic trades. Despite the challenges of organic foods, such as unbalance in supply-demand, food inflation, and lack of certifications, it is still promising that the organic food market could keep aggressively expanding.
