Abstract

AbstractThe present study is devoted to the analysis of problems and priorities for the development of organic agriculture in Russia. The purpose of the work is to propose recommendations for ensuring the sustainability of the development of organic agriculture at the macro level of the economy. Using FiBL data, we demonstrate the growing demand for organic products in developed countries and the availability of resources for the production of organic products in some developing countries. Taking into account existing trends, we determine the competitive advantages of Russia in the world market of organic agriculture. The authors present a model of the organic products production as well as priority areas for supporting organic agriculture. More precisely, we propose to take into account (1) creating communities of producers; (2) recognition of community interests by authorities; (3) a state stimulating policy; (4) regulation of relations between organic and traditional agriculture; and (5) elaboration of the market for organic products. As the result, we suggest to make the managed transition to organic agriculture by distributing the functions in the production of organic products between the state, agro-industrial holdings and farmers.KeywordsOrganic productsAgricultureMarketStateHoldingIntegration
