Nicht mehr am Katzentisch
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Häring, A. M.; Dabbert, S.
Der ökologische Landbau schob sich in den letzten 20 Jahren weit nach vorn im öffentlichen Bewusstsein. Verunsichert von Lebensmittelskandalen und Tierseuchen, interessieren sich Konsumenten heute mehr für ökologisch erzeugte Nahrungsmittel als in den 80er Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts. Parallel dazu verdreifachte sich die ökologisch bewirtschaftete Fläche innerhalb der EU zwischen 1993 und 1999. Trotz dieses Wachstums werden nur drei Prozent der landwirtschaftlichen Flächen in Europa ökologisch bewirtschaftet. In diesem Beitrag wird auf folgende Aspekte eingegangen: „Wo sitzen die Öko-Bauern in Europa?“ , Markt für ökologische Lebensmittel, EU-Agrarpolitik und der ökologische Landbau, und „Was ist der Stand der Dinge im Öko-Landbau in anderen...

The Soil Association and Australia: From Mother Earth to Eve Balfour
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
From its inception the Soil Association was linked with emerging organic thinking in Australia and New Zealand. When the Association was formed in 1946 two of its founder members were residents of Australia and New Zealand, there were already three like minded associations in the region, and the first issue of ‘Mother Earth’ included three articles from antipodean sources. Given this influence it is perhaps no surprise that in the late fifties the Association’s founder, Eve Balfour, spent a year visiting Australia and New Zealand – arriving an ambassador of the Soil Association, and leaving an ambassador for Australia.

Koproduktion von Wissen in der Entwicklung des Biolandbaus -  Einflüsse von Marginalisierung, Anerkennung und Markt
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Aeberhard, Andrea; Rist, PD Dr. Stephan.
The empirical analysis of the historical development of transdisciplinary co-production  of knowledge (CPK) in organic agriculture (OA) in Switzerland has revealed three  distinct phases. The initial phase shows various characteristics of transdisciplinary  CPK and a high importance of experiential knowledge. The 2nd and 3rd phases involve  an in-creasing segregation of farmers’, extension agents’, and scientists’ knowledge,  caused by internal and external impacts, i.e. foundation of independent research  institutions, changes in agriculture policy, and new market strategies. These  developments strikingly represent an ambiguous trend: the growing societal and  political recognition of OA and the increasing market, which are positive  achievements, are...

Organic farming: The arrival and uptake of the dissident agriculture meme in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Just four years elapsed between the coining of the term ‘organic farming’ and the founding of an association devoted to the advocacy of organic farming. The world’s first association devoted to the promotion and proliferation of organic agriculture, the Australian Organic Farming and Gardening Society (AOFGS), was founded in Sydney, Australia, in October 1944. It is a geographically surprising sequel to the coining of the term ‘organic farming’ by Lord Northbourne and its first appearance in war-time Britain. Northbourne’s manifesto of organic farming, Look to the Land, was published in London in May 1940. When the AOFGS published a periodical, the Organic Farming Digest, it was the first association to publish an organics advocacy journal. The present...

Organic farming policies and the growth of the organic sector in Denmark and the UK: a comparative analysis
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Daugbjerg, Carsten; Tranter, Richard; Holloway, Garth.
There has been little systematic analysis of the extent to which organic farming policies have influenced growth in the organic sector. Analyses of organic farming policy instruments, for the most part, provide extensive and detailed reviews of instruments applied either in a single country or across countries. Hence, there is a great need to examine systematically whether there is a relationship between the introduction of organic farming policies and the growth of the organic food sector, and whether particular designs of organic farming policies are more effective than others. In this paper, we take the first step in the endeavour of analysing the effects of organic farming by undertaking an econometric analysis of the relationship between organic...

Development of organic animal production in Turkey
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Polat, Muazzez; Sayan, Yilmaz.
Turkey is located at a point where the three continents are making up the old world. Europe, Asia and Africa are close to each other thus, making it is a pre-eminent centre of commerce for centuries. Turkey’s surface area is 814,578 sq km of which 790,200 sq km are in Asia (Anatolia) and 24.378 sq km are in Europe. Turkey is divided into seven regions (Ege, Marmara, Blacksea, Mediterranean, Central Anatolia, East Anatolia and South East Anatolia Regions). The prevailing climate in Turkey is hot dry summers with mild, wet winters; harsher in interior. Terrain is composed of mostly mountains, narrow coastal plains and high central plateau. Because of its geographical conditions, the mainland of Anatolia has been   found as favourable location for settlement...

A history of demands: philosophy and agrobiology. The significance of the founding principles of organic farming within the framework of contemporary development
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: BESSON, Y.
Organic farming originally deals with the problematic nature/technique within a holistic view. The order of things inspires organic agronomy and social thoughts on agriculture. The link between what is and what has to be socially is not thinkable within modern right and ethic, but it is in accordance with the ancient philosophy. A. Howard, R. Steiner, H.P. Rusch, M. Fukuoka, found their biology according to this fundamental way of behaving. The biology of those founders stands between various philosophical speculations, esoteric speculations, empirical observations, and scientific approaches. According to the ancient philosophy, these authors are suggesting an imitation of nature based on a cyclic understanding. Human intrusion in nature, although founding...

Book Review: Jones, Rebecca (2010) Green Harvest: A History of Organic Farming and Gardening in Australia. CSIRO Publishing, Melbourne.
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Green Harvest is an introduction to four Australian organic farmers and gardeners. Each example is framed within the context of an historical account which is itself subsumed within Jones’ own “four key principles” of organics. At the outset, the author alerts us to her view that “History is both fact and fiction” (p.ix). It is a novel approach which will not appeal to all, and will be unsettling for some. The author states that: “Environmental history is the lens through which I have examined organic growers’ changing ideas about  health and environment” (p.ix). The author claims that: “I have identified four key principles, each founded on organic farmers’ and gardeners’ belief in the dependence of health on the biophysical environment. These four...

Maintaining Trust and Credibility in a Continuously Evolving Organic Food System
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Thorsøe, Martin H.
Credibility is particularly important in organic food systems because there are only marginal visual and sensorial differences between organic and conventionally produced products, requiring consumers to trust in producers’ quality claims. In this article I explore what challenges the credibility of organic food systems and I explore how credibility of organic food systems can be maintained, using the Danish organic food system as a case study. The question is increasingly relevant as the sale of organic food is growing in Denmark as well as globally, and consumers’ expectations of organics continuously evolve. The inquiry is threefold, first I outline a conceptual framework for understanding trust and credibility in the food system, secondly I explore the...

Interest Groups and the Governance of Growth in Organic Farming
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Halpin, Darren; Daugbjerg, Carsten.
In this paper we probe the issue of developing capacity by exploring the organisational evolution of the key organic interest groups in Australia, the UK and Denmark. A comparison of the Organic Federation of Australia (OFA), the British Soil Association (SA) and the Danish National Association of Organic Farming, NAOF (later the National Organic Association, NOA) is particularly useful in investigating the nuts and bolts of interest group capacity development and adjustment. They emerged from a similar milieu; yet they developed their capacities very differently. While all three associations have developed capacities for the promotion of the organic sector in relation to consumers, farmers and government, they differ significantly in relation to capacity...

Fazit:   Wie diese ersten Ergebnisse unserer Untersuchung zeigen, lassen sich mit geschlechtsspezifischen Analysen der Geschichte und Entwicklung des Ökologischen Landbaus neue Seiten hinzufügen. Indem die Produktion des agrarwissenschaftlichen Wissens im Spiegel der Geschlechterverhältnisse als Teil der Sozialgeschichte identifiziert wird, kann das in letzter Zeit verstärkt eingeforderte Projekt einer De/Rekonstruktion der Agrarwissenschaften vorangetrieben werden. Ebenso erhält der seit Jahren für alle gesellschaftlichen Bereiche eingeforderte Prozess des „Gender Mainstreamings“ in den Institutionen des Ökologischen Landbaus neue Impulse. Dies wird nicht nur den Diskurs der Ruralen Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung erweitern, sondern auch zu einer noch...

Australia's original Demeter Farm (1934-1954)
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Two members of Rudolf Steiner’s Experimental Circle were the first to establish a Demeter Farm in Australia. In 1934 Ileen Macpherson (1898-1984) and Ernesto Genoni (1885-1964) founded their ‘Demeter Biological Farm’ on the Princes Highway in Dandenong, Victoria. They were guided by Steiner’s book of his Agriculture Course (1924). They managed their 40 acre farm using biodynamic (BD) practices for the next two decades. Ileen and Ernesto pioneered biodynamic and thereby organic farming in Australia. They were the first to adopt the name ‘Demeter’ for an Australian BD enterprise. This was before the terms ‘biodynamic farming’ and ‘organic farming’ had any currency (which date from 1938 and 1940 respectively). They worked their BD farm for two decades until...

In the last ten years, both the academic community and the general public became more interested in organic agriculture. Organic agriculture is a holistic production system, which sustains the natural soil activity, ecosystems and people. It supports ecological processes, biodiversity and normal life-cycle in the nature, respects the specifics of a locality and excludes inputs of a non-organic origin. Available statistical data show that there are 1,8 million producers from 160 countries that engage in organic agriculture. The numbers of organic farms and share of organic in total agricultural surfaces are constantly increasing. Development of organic agriculture, namely, increase of organic agriculture outputs, enables creation of the market for organic...

The Future of Organic Agriculture: Otopia or Oblivion?
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Organic agriculture could feed the world, but will it? A state of Otopia, an organic Utopia of 100% organic food and organic agriculture, is a dream, or is it a pipe-dream? And if a dream, might it manifest in four decades or 54 decades? The stated goal of the organic movement is the adoption worldwide of organic agriculture. That task has a long path to travel, with organic agriculture currently accounting for 0.8% of agricultural land worldwide. Two roads to Otopia are extrapolated from the rate of growth of global organics exhibited over the past decade. If an arithmetic rate of growth  - think simple interest - continued indefinitely then a state of Otopia would take 544 years (2553). Under a geometric growth scenario - think compound interest - Otopia...

Organic food has been described as the world’s fastest growing food sector, and many countries have now set targets for conversion to Organic Agriculture. The stated goal of the organic movement is the adoption worldwide of Organic Agriculture. That task has a long path to travel, with Organic Agriculture currently accounting for 1.8% of worldwide agricultural land. One strategy for success in any endeavour, is: find out who "the winners” are, identify what they are doing, and do that; and there is a corollary to this maxim. Which countries are leaders in the adoption of Organic Agriculture?

Sharpening Up Research on Organics: Why We Need to Integrate Sectoral Policy Research into Mainstream Policy Analysis
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Daugbjerg, Carsten; Halpin, Darren.
As a fast growing state sponsored industry, the organic food sector is likely to attract the increased attention of policy analysts who are interested in industry development. We critically review the European comparative research on growth in the organic sector, focusing on policy analysis. A common element in these accounts is that findings are by no means clear on why variation in organic growth between countries exists. The literature provides a range of possible variables explaining divergent patterns of organic sector development but solid conclusions are elusive. We suggest that future policy orientated research on organic sector apply existing theories on public policy and carefully design studies in accordance with the prescriptions of the...

Modelling P Dynamics in soil - Decomposition and Sorption: Concepts and User Manual
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Gjettermann, Birgitte.
Weather-driven simulation modelling has become an important component of studies of soil nu-trients, both for crop growth and for losses by leaching to the environment. In order to model phosphorus (P) dynamics in soil, the mobilisation and immobilisation processes of inorganic and organic P species is important for quantifying P leaching from the unsaturated zone. The mobilization and immobilisation processes of P are represented in this project by sorption and desorption of P and by decomposition of organic matter with mineralization and immobilisation of P.   The code/model presented here, referred to as the P-Model, works with another model, called Daisy. The Daisy code delivers input data of water content, water flux, temperature, inorganic nitrogen...

Plant-growth-promoting soil microorganisms are increasingly distributed on the world market. Nutrient mobilization, stimulation of root growth, enhanced resistance to envi-ronmental stress factors are discussed as possible mechanisms. These assumptions are based only on scarce scientific evidence due to limited reproducibility of pot and field experiments, limited information concerning the conditions for successful applica-tion, limited standardization of inoculum preparation and quality. Thus, the develop-ment of rapid screening tests is to demonstrate the principle effectiveness of biofertil-izers prior to set-up of labourous pot or field experiments is urgently required.

The organics iceberg and the tyranny of organic certification
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
The existence of an ‘organics iceberg’ is a hypothesis rather than a fact. Nevertheless, reports in The World of Organic Agriculture that there are 37,245,686 certified organic hectares worldwide and that this accounts for 0.86% of global agriculture are lower bounds, in fact underestimates, of the size and the achievements of the organics movement. While such statistics are seductively precise, they are merely the countable manifestation of a larger phenomenon, and perhaps a much larger phenomenon, which may be - an organics iceberg. Just how large is the uncounted ‘world of organic agriculture’, as compared to the counted world of certified organic agriculture, is a matter of speculation, but its existence is doubtless. In a recent study in India...

The Lost History of Organic Farming in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
It has not been previously reported that the world’s first “organic” farming society was the Australian Organic Farming and Gardening Society (AOFGS) which was founded in Australia in October 1944. The association was based in Sydney, New South Wales, and the first issue of its journal, the Organic Farming Digest (OFD), was dated April 1946. This was Australia’s first, and the world’s second, “organic” farming journal. The eighteen month delay between the founding of the society and the first publication of the journal was because paper was unavailable in Australia for that purpose during WWII. The society published a total of 378 articles in 29 issues from 1946 to 1954. Articles from Australia, UK, USA, New Zealand, South Africa, Germany and Denmark were...

Foreword to The Organic Grower
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Audrey Windram is a living treasure of Australian organics. She has been ‘fighting the good fight’ to advance the cause of organics for the best part of half a century. When it comes to organics, Audrey leads by example. She has been living the organic life, variously as an organics pioneer, producer, evangelist, educator and author, all the while ‘practising what she preaches’ and preaching in the most gentle of ways. It is a delight to commend Audrey Windram’s latest book The Organic Grower on the fortieth anniversary of the publication of her first organics book. Organic Gardening originally appeared in 1975 as a Rigby Instant Book. It was a mass-market book distributed throughout Australia. The organics enterprise must continue to draw strength from...

Primera aproximación a los principios y valores de la agricultura ecológica en España
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Gonzálvez, V.
La evolución de la Agriculura ecológica (AE), ha sido distinta incluso dentro de los países industrializados, generándose desde motivaciones y fundamentos distintos en los movimientos que la forjaron. Esto ha ocasionado distintos énfasis en sus objetivos, principios y valores que, luego han marcado el desarrollo de la misma. Este es el caso de España, donde el movimiento social e ideológico que estimuló el nacimiento y práctica de la AE puso mayor énfasis en los aspectos sociopolíticos, en detrimento quizá de los aspectos relacionados con el desarrollo de los mercados, lo que más adelante ha repercutido en su desarrollo, junto a otros factores tales como el escaso interés y apoyo gubernamental al sector o el menor desarrollo del sector industrial, con el...

Ch 2: Organic farming: The arrival and uptake of the dissident agriculture meme in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Only four years elapsed between the coining of the term ‘organic farming’ and the founding of an association  devoted to the advocacy of organic farming. The world’s first association dedicated to the promotion and proliferation of organic agriculture, the Australian Organic Farming and Gardening Society (AOFGS), was founded in Sydney, Australia, in October 1944. It is a geographically surprising sequel to the coining of the term ‘organic farming’ by Lord Northbourne and its first appearance in war-time Britain. Northbourne’s manifesto of organic farming, Look to the Land, was published in London in May 1940. When the AOFGS published a periodical, the Organic Farming Digest, it was the first association to publish an organics advocacy journal. The present...

Lord Northbourne, the man who invented organic farming, a biography
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
It was Lord Northbourne (Walter James; 1896-1982) who gifted to the world the term ‘organic farming’. His 1940 book Look to the Land is a manifesto of organic agriculture. In it he mooted a contest of “organic versus chemical farming” which he foresaw as a clash of world views that may last for generations. Northbourne’s ideas were foundational in launching the worldwide organics movement, and the book was a turning point in his own life. This biography relies on primary sources to draw a picture of Lord Northbourne. He was a very shy man, a talented artist, a capable linguist, a keen sportsman and an Olympic silver medallist, a graduate and lecturer in agriculture of the University of Oxford, a lifelong farmer, he was profoundly spiritual, an accomplished...

Ernesto Genoni: Australia’s pioneer of biodynamic agriculture
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975) pioneered biodynamic agriculture in Australia. In 1928 he was the first of (ultimately) twelve Australians to join Rudolf Steiner’s Experimental Circle of Anthroposophical Farmers and Gardeners (ECAFG) which was based at the Goetheanum, Dornach, Switzerland. Ernesto trained as an artist for five years at Milan’s prestigious Brera Academy. He visited his brothers in Australia, broad-acre immigrant farmers in Western Australia, in 1912 and 1914 and during these visits he worked on their, and other’s, farms. In 1916 he enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and served as a stretcher bearer on the battlefields of the Somme, France, before being conscripted into the Italian Army and serving jail-time in Italy as a draft...

The Uptake of Organic Agriculture: A Decade of Worldwide Development
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
It has been claimed that organic agriculture is the fastest growing agriculture based industry in the world. The land devoted to organic agriculture worldwide has increased over the past decade from 15.8 million hectares to 37.2 million hectares exhibiting a compounding rate of growth of 8.9% per annum. This paper disaggregates the global growth in organic agriculture land over the past decade using country as the unit of analysis. For each country, two indices of organics sector growth are derived, firstly, the actual hectares increase, and secondly, the hectares-multiplier, that is the factor by which the organic hectares have changed over the decade. Growth over the past decade is presented for 71 countries which taken together account for 35.3 million...

Understanding the development of organic agriculture in Flanders(Belgium): A discourse analytical approach
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: De Cock, Lieve; Dessein, Joost; de Krom, Michiel P.
Despite a fast-growing national consumer market for organic products and active governmental support for organic agriculture, organic production in Flanders has shown little growth since the late 1990s. Our discourse analytical approach offers important insights into the causes of the limited organic pro-duction capacity in Flanders complementary to more common political-institutional or actor-oriented perspectives. Our analysis reveals that for decades, a competition between two mutually exclusive organicfarming discourses has hindered a collaborative effort to contribute to a growth of the organic agricultural sector by conventional and organic agricultural communities, agricultural policy makers, and food market actors. Such collaboration however,...

The Glass House: Crucible of Biodynamic Agriculture
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
The Glass House (1914) at Dornach, Switzerland, in the precinct of the Goetheanum, is the oldest extant building designed by Rudolf Steiner. The building is intimately associated with the development of biodynamic agriculture. It was in the Glass House that Assya Turgeniev produced the remarkable engraved coloured glass windows of both the first and the present Goetheanum building, and hence the name 'Glass House'. In 1919, with Steiner's approval, Ehrenfried Pfeiffer (1899-1961) and Guenther Wachsmuth (1893-1963) set up a research laboratory in the basement of the Glass House. Thus began two decades of research work by Pfeiffer at Dornach, which culminated in the publication of his book 'Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening' (1938) in five languages, Dutch,...

Entwicklung des Ökologischen Landbaus in Deutschland von 1997 bis 2003
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Eichert, Christian.
Looking at the degree of development of the German organic farming sector, one can assess an explicit headway from the year 1997 until 2003. As a “trigger event” and crucial for the advancement of the sector one can put on record the readjustment within the Ministry of Consumer Protection, Food and Agriculture in 2001, caused by the BSE crisis. A Consequence was the creation of an organic farming scheme (BÖL) and the state-aided promotion of “Biosiegel”, a new formed organic label. The politically encour-aged trend initiates a go-ahead spirit and a broad establishment of organic farming inside the German farming community.

Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975) was the pioneer of biodynamics in Australia. The exhibition, Angels of the First Class, presents art that he produced under the tutelage of Rudolf Steiner at Dornach, Switzerland, in the year of Steiner's Agriculture Course. A century ago, Ernesto joined the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and served as a stretcher bearer on the killing fields of the Western Front in 1916, in the battles of the Somme and Pozières. In 1923, Ernesto wrote to Rudolf Steiner from Italy offering his labour for advancing the Anthroposophy project. Ernesto arrived at Dornach early in 1924 and successfully applied to Dr Steiner for acceptance into the First Class (Erste Klasse der Freien Hochschule für Geisteswissenschaft).

Organic Agriculture Movement at a Crossroad: a Comparative Study of Denmark and Japan
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Fomsgaard, Saki Ichihara.
Along with apparent institutionalisation of organic agriculture that took place in the last couple of decades, the role of organic agriculture organisations as a social movement actor has increasingly being put into question. Under this circumstance, there can be observed an evidence  of “division” among these organisations at being foe or ally to this trend of institutionalisation.  Why have such competing trajectories existed in this social movement field? And how have different trajectories evolved throughout the time? Through a comparative study of two organisations related to organic agriculture in Denmark and Japan, it argues that a cause of the discrepancy can be found in fundamentally different formulations of the concepts of organic agriculture...

How Dr. Ehrenfried Pfeiffer Contributed to Organic Agriculture in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Ehrenfried Pfeiffer (1899-1961) was 25 years old when Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) delivered his eight lectures on agriculture from 7th June to 16th June 1924. In those eight lectures at Koberwitz, Rudolf Steiner laid the basis for biodynamic agriculture. Steiner advocated an agriculture informed by anthroposophy, and that the ideas he expounded in the eight agriculture lectures should be developed by experiments, practice and observation. Ehrenfried Pfeiffer took up this task and he spent the rest of his life in the pursuit. Pfeiffer published his book ‘Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening’ in 1938. It was the first popular account of bio-dynamic agriculture. In that book Pfeiffer presented the practical results of more than a decade of farming practice and...

It’s organic because Germany invaded Poland: How and why organic got its name and the Oxford connection
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
The term “organic farming” first appeared in Lord Northbourne’s manifesto of organic agriculture, Look to the Land, published in 1940. This paper reveals how the outbreak of war in Europe in 1939 was the compelling reason for the writing of the book, and how the University of Oxford played key roles at important times in Northbourne’s life in shaping and sustaining his thinking. He was both a graduate in agriculture as well as a lecturer in agriculture of the university. This paper examines how and why the term ‘organic’ came to be, the timing of the term and the timing of the book, and why WWII was a crucial element in shaping Northbourne’s framing of the food contest of modern times as a contest of ‘organic versus chemical farming’. He foresaw this as a...

Vidensynteseprojektet blev indledt med interviews af dyrlæger og konsulenter for at indkredse veterinære problemstillinger, som er forbundet med omlægning til økologisk drift. En omlægning af besætningen er en del af omlægningen af hele bedriften og bør som sådan ikke ses isoleret. Konsulentens fokus er relativt bredt på hele bedriften, dyrlægens er mere snævert på den enkelte ko og gruppen af køer/kvier/kalve. Dette perspektiv bør ikke stå alene i og med, at det er hele bedriften, som lægges om.  Beslutninger i besætningen griber ind i hele bedriften, ligesom beslutninger  på bedriftsniveau griber ind i rutiner og rammer i besætningen.

Development of organic farming in Central and Eastern European countries
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Hrabalova, Andrea; Wollmuthova, Pavla.
The total organic area in the eight examined Central and Eastern European countries (CEECs) increased to 907,900 ha and represented 2.73% of the utilised agricultural area (UAA) in 2005. This corresponds to an annual growth rate of 23.13%. However, the area of fodder crops represented over 65% of this increase. Estonia and the Czech Republic have the highest share (over 7%) in total organic area of UAA. At the same time these countries have seen a steady decrease of in-conversion area, which limits the potential for further growth. In the organic production structure, grassland and the production of fodder have become the main organic crop areas, mainly in Slovenia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Estonia and Latvia. In relation to organic livestock, beef...

Breslau (Wrocław): In the footsteps of Rudolf Steiner
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Rudolf Steiner wrote that “The nearness of the Koberwitz estate to Breslau made it possible to unite the agricultural course with other anthroposophical work”. Each day, after the Agriculture Course was presented at the Koberwitz chateau of Count Keyserlingk, Steiner commuted to Breslau (now Wrocław, Poland) and back. Most attendees of the Agriculture Course stayed at Breslau and commuted daily in the opposite direction. Steiner’s evening karma lectures were delivered in the lecture hall on the top floor of the Viktoria School (now Liceum Ogólnokształçace Nr 1). Wrocław is now a vibrant, prosperous, Polish city, having been forfeited by Germany following WWII. Wrocław is the European Capital of Culture (Europejska stolica kultury) for 2016.

The study advances two lines of academic discussion. First, our study adds to the existing literature on organic farming. Even though previous literature on pioneer organic farmers has identified the attitudes among conventional farming community and social stigma as barriers to organic conversion (e.g. Rigby et al. 2001), it has not addressed the ways how pioneer organic farmers were coping with the social stigma. By demonstrating pioneer organic farmers as institutional entrepreneurs who challenged the existing institutional order by overcame the stigmatizing cultural categories at the time. Second, our paper further contributes to stigma management literature by demonstrating how stigmatization can be understood as an empowering condition, thus enabling...

Gennem det seneste år har dyrlægerne i stigende grad forholdt sig til økologisk jordbrug. Dette er sket i takt med, at driftsformen blev mere og mere udbredt og de fleste dyrlægepraksis blev tilknyttet en eller flere økologiske besætninger. I lederen i Dansk VeterinærTidsskrift den 1. Maj 1998 (81, s. 337; gengivet i appendiks) påpegede man således, at danske dyrlæger jævnligt stødte på problematiske områder i den økologiske husdyrproduktion, og at man i økologiske besætninger ser dyr, der skulle have været behandlet eller aflivet. Man påpegede også, at de økologiske regler kan medføre, at sygdom bliver en kostbar affære i økologiske besætninger, hvorfor man var langsommere til at behandle disse dyr. Det anses blandt andet som værende dyrlægens pligt at...

Autores: Wolf, Dipl.-Ing. agr. D.; Hirte, Dr. K.; Schüler, Dr. C.; Heß, Prof. Dr. J.
For the understanding of ecological agriculture, knowledge of its roots is essential.  Actual literature about this topic does not cover the history of ecological agriculture in  East Germany especially if chronological development and individual motivation are  seen as mutual dependent. The ecological organisation Gäa e.V. was founded in the  GDR in 1989. Its origins were oppositional environmental groups working within the  East German church. It developed own principles based on individual experience with  unique aspects. It has established and integrated well in the German ecological agriculture  structure after the reunification and the changed political background as an  authentic representative of and for the East German ecological agriculture scene.

Werteorientierte Unternehmensführung im Nachfolgeprozess bei Bio-Pionierunternehmen der Lebensmittelverarbeitung: Perspektiven und Herausforderungen für Partnerschaften mit dem Ökolandbau
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Herzig, Christian; Middendorf, Matthias.
Sowohl in der Branche der ökologischen Lebensmittelverarbeitung als auch auf Ebene der Primärproduktion im Ökolandbau ist das Thema „Nachfolge und Betriebsübergabe“ derzeit allgegenwärtig. Damit steht eine Ära werteorientierter Betriebsführung bei Öko-Verarbeitern und Bio-Landwirten gleichermaßen im Umbruch. Ohne die Bio-Pioniere aus der Verarbeitungsbranche gäbe es dabei den Ökolandbau in Deutschland, wie er heute ist, so nicht. Bio-Pionierunternehmen gelten über ihre regionalen und teils internationalen Anbaupartnerschaften und -projekte mit Bio-Landwirten als die frühen Treiber und Förderer für die Entwicklung des Ökolandbaus.

Determinants of economic growth in organic farming: the case of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Brenes Muñoz, Thelma; Lakner, Sebastian; Brümmer, Bernhard.
Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht Faktoren, die möglicherweise einen Einfluss auf das wirtschaftliche Wachstum von 332 ökologischen Betrieben in Bayern und Baden-Württemberg haben. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Direktvermarktung und der Tierbesatz das einzelbetriebliche Wachstum positiv beeinflussen. Diese Effekte sind deutlicher ausgeprägt als andere Einflüsse. Daneben kann gezeigt werden, dass technisch ineffiziente Betriebe stärker wachsen als technisch effiziente Betriebe. Dies kann mit dem ökonomischen Druck auf ineffiziente Betriebe und mit Ineffizienz im Wachstumsprozess erklärt werden.

Institutionalisation of Social Movements: A Comparative Perspective on Organic Agriculture Organisations in Denmark and Japan
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Fomsgaard, Saki Ichihara.
This study deals with competing strategic orientations of the organic agriculture movement toward institutionalisation: a division in whether organic agriculture should develop within the prevailing system (pro-institutional strategy) or preserve its alternativeness compared to conventional agriculture (anti-institutional strategy). It aims to investigate development and reasons of the specific strategies and evaluate their impact on the organic agriculture movement as a social movement. This aim is pursued by a comparative study of the leading organic agriculture organisations in Denmark and Japan: The former as a typical pro-institutional case and the latter as an anti-institutional case.  The inquiry overall takes an integrative framework based on...

Extracts from a History of the Organic Agriculture Movement in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Australia’s involvement in the organic movement has proceeded in four district waves of activity. The First Wave (1920s &amp; 1930s) was that of the Australian anthroposophists who joined Rudolf Steiner’s Agricultural Experimental Circle of Anthroposophic Farmers and Gardeners and culminated with the ‘coming out’ of biodynamic agriculture in 1938 with Ehrenfried Pfeiffer’s book Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening and in Australia with Bob Williams presenting the first public lecture on biodynamics at the home of Walter Burley and Marion Mahoney Griffin. The Second Wave of organic agriculture in Australia (1940s &amp; 1950s) is anchored by the coining of the term ‘organic farming’ in 1940, in England and it saw the founding of the first associations in...

Tintagel: In the Footsteps of Rudolf Steiner
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
On his final visit to Britain, Rudolf Steiner delivered three lectures a day during the Anthroposophical Society’s Summer School at Torquay (11-22 August 1924). Steiner took one day out of this hectic schedule to be a tourist for a day. The decision took him as far west as he ever ventured in his lifetime - to Tintagel on the west cost of Cornwall. The Tintagel visit occurred just two months after Steiner’s Agriculture Course and less than six weeks before Rudolf Steiner retreated from public life entirely. On this, his tenth visit to Britain, Steiner lectured on Anthroposophy and Waldorf education. The opportunity for agriculture lectures in Britain never arose, and there had been no Anglo attendees at the Koberwitz course. However, the Tintagel day trip...

Autores: Rios Thomson, Carolina; Abreu, Lucimar Santiago de; Grespan de Oliveira, Diego.
The research aimed to rescue the context in which the Brazilian regulation for organic production and control mechanisms for organic quality assurance occurred. Also a case study on what has been the experience of the first PGS (Participatory Guarantee System) accredited by Mapa (Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply) was conducted. The Natural Agriculture Association of Campinas decided to adopt a PGS three years ago ending its activities as a non-profitable third party certifier. The research sought to understand the farmer´s motivations for adopting the ANC´s PGS and which are the main challenges and gains within this kind of social control mechanism. The study preliminary results indicate that the recognition by the law of PGSs and SCOs (Social...

Autores: HANITRINIALA, Mr ANDRIANJAKA.
A Madagascar, l’exportation de produits dits « biologiques » a commencé en 1990 et s’est développée au fil des années. Cependant, le secteur de l’agriculture biologique a été frappé par la crise nationale de 2002 et tente encore de se redresser.    L’Etat n’a pas encore élaboré une politique nationale en matière d’agriculture biologique. Le secteur privé continue ses initiatives avec l’appui des organismes privés étrangers. Aucun réseau n’existe à part le groupement PRONABIO qui rassemble les sociétés opérant dans le domaine. La plupart de ces sociétés établissent un contrat avec les petits paysans producteurs, collectent leurs produits et les exportent.

The Institutional Environment for Certified Organic Agriculture in China: A review, some landscaping and a framework agenda for more analysis
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Egelyng, Henrik; Yu Hui, Qiao; Li, Luping.
From a development research perspective this paper presents a framework for exploring the Chinese case of certified organic agriculture (COA). Departing from an analysis of the globalisation of certified organic agriculture, we first present our theoretical approach and then review the small, but recent existing social science literature on ecological-green-organic agriculture in China. One line of inquiry is exploring how far developments in COA are driven by export aspirations, market actors and their agencies and how far the same developments already involve civil society and domestically oriented government agencies. We proceed to briefly outline the development of the formal institutional landscape of Chinese organic farming. Finally, we present a...

Associative Deadlocks and Transformative Capacity: Engaging in Australian Organic Farm Industry Development
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Halpin, Darren; Daugbjerg, Carsten.
Recent work on industry policy argues that group and state capacity are important in underpinning (or undermining) the capacity to govern industrial development. Put simply, group capacity - alongside state capacity - is deemed an important ingredient in any recipe for (re)developing national industry. This article further develops the literature on governance and transformative capacity, adding deliberative networking as a key facet. Examining the development of the organic farming sector in Australia, it is argued that the absence of transformative capacity frustrates development. Specifically, although the state has slowly come to see a need for some interaction and facilitation of organic industry development, particularly of a national domestic...

The Betteshanger Summer School: Missing link between biodynamic agriculture and organic farming
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Biodynamic agriculture and organic farming have been regarded as having different provenances and having arisen independently. The present account introduces the ‘missing link’ between the two. In 1938 Ehrenfried Pfeiffer published the milestone book on biodynamics: Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening. In 1940 Lord Northbourne published Look to the Land, the work that introduced the term ‘organic farming’. In the summer of the intervening year, Pfeiffer travelled from Switzerland to Northbourne’s estate in Kent, UK, and presented for British farmers a nine day course on biodynamics, the Betteshanger Summer School and Conference on Bio-Dynamic Farming, 1-9 July 1939. Pfeiffer was supported by the pre-eminent biodynamic scholar-practitioners, Otto Eckstein and...

Permanent Agriculture: Precursor to Organic Farming
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
The concept of Permanent Agriculture predates Organic Agriculture by thirty years. Following a clash with the USDA over the theory of soil fertility, American soil scientist Franklin King wrote "Farmers of Forty Centuries or Permanent Agriculture in China, Korea and Japan" (1911). Permanent Agriculture and Organic Agriculture share many ideas. The founder of Organic Agriculture described Franklin's work as a "classic" which "no student of farming or social science can afford to ignore".

The Pioneers of Biodynamics in USA: The Early Milestones of Organic Agriculture in the United States
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Biodynamics has played a key role in environmental and sustainable development. Rudolf Steiner founded the Experimental Circle of Anthroposophic Farmers and Gardeners at Koberwitz (now Kobierzyce, Poland) in 1924. The task for the Experimental Circle was to test Steiner’s ‘hints’ for a new and sustainable agriculture, to find out what works, and to publish and tell the world. Ehrenfried published his book Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening in New York in 1938, fulfilling Steiner’s directive. In the interval, 1924-1938, 39 individual Americans joined the Experimental Circle. They were the pioneers of biodynamics and organics in USA, and finally their names and locations are revealed. Of the 39 members, three received copies of the Agriculture Course in both...

A New Incarnation- The Role of the Organic Growers  Association in Changing the Production and Marketing  of Organic Produce
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Frost, David; Wacher, Carolyn.
Although there is a widespread assumption that organic farming developed in response to the intensification of agriculture in the second half of the twentieth century, a number of scholars have sought to show that the origins of the movement date to the 1920s and 1930s. They argue that that there is continuity in the development of the organic movement and that the ideals and values of the early organicists are the origin of current organic farming discourse. A detailed history of the organic movement indicates however, that a number of social movements converged to contribute to its development. Particular cultural and socio- demographic changes in the last three decades of the twentieth century produced a new ex-urban organic movement with a new organic...

Mellem stat og marked: Danske økologiske landbrugsorganisationers rolle i implementering af økologipolitik
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Schvartzman, Yonatan.
Organic farming growth is to a considerable extent fostered by state intervention, in particular in Europe. As an example of successful state involvement in ‘green’ infant industries, it forms a new research field for policy analysts interested in studying the relationship between public policy and industrial development.   Denmark was the first country to form a distinct law on organic farming in 1987. The Danish organic sector has been regulated ever since. The major role of the Danish organic farming policy, in particular conversion subsidies, is to enable market creation which require that there are both suppliers of organic products and consumers of organic products. In that connection the Danish state granted financial support for initiatives related...

Invisible Farmer - Australia’s first woman organic farmer discovered in Switzerland: The story of Ileen Macpherson
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
On a hunch, I travelled from Oxford to the Swiss village of Dornach. Could it be that there were Australians who joined the world’s earliest organic agriculture research organisation back in the 1920s or 1930s? Then, I had never heard of Ileen Macpherson. I discovered in the archives of the Goetheanum that twelve Australians had joined Rudolf Steiner’s Experimental Circle. This is the story of one of those pioneers of organic farming, Ileen Macpherson (1898-1984). Ileen Macpherson was the daughter of a farming family. They farmed large pastoral properties in the south of New South Wales (NSW); Paika Station (250,000 acres) and later Goonambil Station, in the Murrumbidgee Valley. In 1934, Ileen, along with her partner Ernesto Genoni (1885-1974), founded...

Governing growth in organic farming: The evolving capacities of organic groups in the United Kingdom and Denmark
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Daugbjerg, Carsten; Halpin, Darren.
The question of the ‘policy capacity’ of interest groups is increasingly gaining prominence as a key variable in governing and transformative capacities. This raises the issue of whether group policy capacities can be developed. While group scholars have long talked of group capacity, this has largely amounted to compiling a ‘shopping list’ of possible capacities general to all groups. There has not been much attention to variations in capacity among groups, or with the development of capacity by a single group over time. This paper takes a tentative step towards filling this gap.  In pursuing this general line of inquiry we argue that (i) initial ‘selection’ of group type shapes scope of capacity development, (ii) groups seek to adapt capacity to changing...

Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975) was a pioneer of biodynamic and organic farming in Australia. He was the first Australian member of Rudolf Steiner’s Experimental Circle of Anthroposophic Farmers &amp; Gardeners (joining in 1928). Others in Ernesto’s set joined the Experimental Circle, including his eldest brother, Emilio (in 1930), Ruby Macpherson (in 1935), and her niece, Ileen Macpherson (in 1936). Ernesto and Ileen founded and farmed Australia’s original ‘Demeter Farm’ (from 1935). However biodynamic and organic farming was but one aspect of Ernesto’s life.  Ernesto trained for five years in classical art at the prestigious Brera Academy of Fine Art in Milan (Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera). Ernesto spent the year 1924 at Dornach, Switzerland, the...

Generating Governance Capacity in Infant Industries: The Development of Organic Farming in Denmark and Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Halpin, Darren; Daugbjerg, Carsten.
Organic farming is of increasing interest to policy makers as it has been linked to environmental, rural development and market related outcomes which have high political salience. As such, attention naturally turns to catalysing organic growth. Patterns of growth vary considerably among countries, but existing explanations of variation lack authority. This paper compares the development of organic farming sectors in Australia and Denmark, countries at polar ends of the organic sector development continuum. They provide a good comparison as both countries share key characteristics, such as a history of state-agricultural industry partnerships, an implicit post-1980’s consensus around a market model for agricultural industry development, and the general...

Edith Ileen Macpherson (1898-1984) was a co-founder of Australia’s original biodynamic Demeter Farm (c.1934-1954) along with her partner Ernesto Genoni (1885-1974). Ileen was a member of Rudolf Steiner’s Experimental Circle of Anthroposophic Farmers and Gardeners (from 1936). Ernesto was the first Australian member (from 1928). At their Demeter Farm in Dandenong, Victoria, they practiced biodynamic agriculture on over 40 acres (16 ha) through the years of the Great Depression, through World War II, and for the first decade of the post-war years, producing milk, fruit, and vegetables. Ileen was an early Australian Anthroposophist and follower of Rudolf Steiner. It was a blow to their Demeter Farm enterprise when she fell ill. Eventually she was no longer...

A Century of Synthetic Fertilizer: 1909-2009

Autores: Paull, John.
This year marks a centenary of the synthetic fertilizer industry. German chemists, Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch, in 1909 demonstrated their industrial process for the manufacture of ammonia. The achievement won them accolades including Nobel Prizes. The output of their Haber-Bosch process can be used for either peace or war, agriculture or munitions, and the rapid adoption by Germany of this industrial process is credited with prolonging WW1. Most  of the synthetic nitrogenous fertilizer of the past century, and right up to the present, has been manufactured using the Haber-Bosch process. The use of synthetic fertilizers has led to significant negative environmental outcomes. Rudolf Steiner was an early voice against chemical agriculture. Steiner's...

SOME METHODOLOGICAL DIFFICULTIES OF CONDUCTING AGROECOLOGICAL STUDIES FROM A STATISTICAL PERSPECTIVE
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Bianconi, A.; von Zuben, C.J.; Habberman, G.; Govone, J.S.; Dalgaard, T.
It is widely accepted that statistical analyses are essential tools for improving agronomic techniques, and our goal was to discuss the importance of such tools to alternative agronomic approaches. Effective comparisons between organic and conventional production systems are not as common as they could be, because it is usually difficult to meet the assumptions of traditional statistical approaches in making such comparisons. In this context, the current paper indicates that alternative approaches (such as organic farming) should be promoted not only by encouraging farmers to deploy agroecological techniques, but also by providing agroecologists with robust analyses based on rigorous statistical procedures.

Deconstructing the organic movement
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Frost, David.
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference. Organic agriculture has sought to establish its scientific validity and its origins. Conford (2001) claims that these can be traced to the 1920s, and that Anglican Christianity is pivotal to its history. However, organic agriculture takes many forms and the role of religion in society has changed.

Dalmore Farm: Victoria’s first biodynamic farming venture (1933-1934)
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
Dalmore Farm (1933-1934) was Victoria’s first biodynamic farming venture. A letter, written in Milan, Italy, in Italian in 1934 by Rosa Genoni (1867-1954) \ enables details of this venture to be finally revealed. Rosa wrote of her youngest brother, Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975): “Now Ernesto … is at Dalmore, a farm of my brother Marino (the father of the boy [Alfredo Genoni (1913-1999)] who was sent to us years ago from Australia and we sent him to Dornach where he stayed for two years, and two more to the school at Stuttgart) and in part by my brother Angelo, who asked Ernesto to go and organise the farm biologically”. “Ernesto had a small wooden house built there for his use. It has only two rooms but it must be fairly comfortable, as Ernesto invited...

DEVELOPMENT OF THE ORGANIC SECTOR IN POST-SOCIALIST BULGARIA 1990-2013
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Stoeva, Svetla; Slavova, Petya; Georgieva, Zdravka.
The aim of the paper is to present the socio-economic and political aspects in the development of organic sector in post-socialist Bulgaria. It will question the building up of the organic concept in terms of national policies, farming practices and market forces in the country.   That topic has its scientific relevance at least in three crucial dimensions. Firstly, because the legacy of the socialist system significantly affected the structure of the agricultural sector as well as the entrepreneurial behavior of the rural population under conditions of transition. Secondly, the analysis is important because it helps to identify the internal (national) and the external (out of the national context) driving forces that influence the development of the...

The Farm as Organism: The Foundational Idea of Organic Agriculture
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Paull, John.
The term 'organic farming' was coined by Lord Northbourne in his canonical work "Look to the Land", published in London (1940). Northbourne introduced the concept of the farm as organism, contrasted organic with chemical farming, and introduced many of the concepts that continue to preoccupy discussions and practice of organic agriculture.

From the original records held in the Archives of the Goetheanum, the earliest pioneers of biodynamics in New Zealand, those who joined Steiner’s Experimental Circle of Anthroposophic Farmers and Gardeners from 1924 to 1938, the years of omertà, are now revealed. Each of these fifteen members of the Experimental Circle submitted a signed confidentiality agreement and was issued with a numbered copy of the Agriculture Course at the time of joining. Thirteen individual copies were issued; the Compton-Smiths shared copy #12E, and the Averys shared copy #30E. The ‘E’ suffix indicated that the copy was an English-language edition (sometimes the ‘E’ appeared as a prefix). The copy to Bacchus was #562 (without a suffix) indicating that it was the German-language...

Changing power alignments in the food sector: the case of organic farming
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Moschitz, Heidrun.
Although existing as a concept (with a few farmers following it) since the 1920s, it was in the 1970s and 1980s that organic farming evolved as a social movement pursuing an alternative style of food production and consumption. It is, however, a particular social movement, in so far that it has not only developed as an alternative idea to mainstream agriculture, but it has put its innovative ideas into a concrete, real practice. This practice has since continuously been developed further by farmers, engaged consumers, environmental groups, and researchers. In addition, politics have taken an interest in organic farming, and support organic farming in many countries.  The implications of acting in such a real practice becomes manifest in the ‘triple logic’...

“Now once again we have made a great step forward!” exclaimed Rudolf Steiner on the drive back from Koberwitz. Koberwitz (now Kobierzyce, Poland) can fairly be regarded as the birthplace of biodynamic agriculture. Rudolf Steiner delivered eight lectures at the Koberwitz Chateau (Schloss Koberwitz) in German in the summer of 1924 (7-16 June). There were 111 attendees, 30 women and 81 men, who came from six countries: Germany, Poland, Austria, Switzerland, France, and Sweden. The audience included farmers, estate managers, doctors, priests, teachers, artists, and engineers who all came to hear Steiner’s vision for agriculture. A witness observed “Seldom have I seen him so joyfully moved after the completion of a task as in this moment after the agricultural...

Autores: Knudsen, Marie Trydeman; Halberg, Niels; Olesen, Jørgen E.; Byrne, John; Iyer, Venkatesh; Toly, Noah.
Increasing globalization affects agricultural production and trade and has consequences for the sustainability of both conventional and organic agriculture.     During the last decades, agricultural production and yields have been increasing along with global fertilizer and pesticide consumption. This development has been especially pronounced in the industrialized countries and some developing countries such as China, where cereal yields have increased a remarkable twofold and 4.5-fold respectively since 1961. In those countries, food security has increased, a greater variety of food has been offered and diets have changed towards a greater share of meat and dairy products. However, this development has led to a growing disparity among agricultural...

Summary:   Avalon has been supporting organic farming in the New Member States since 1991. It has implemented numerous demonstration, research, education, policy making and awareness raising projects. Avalon has acquired a substantial legacy from its twenty years experience in inspiring, empowering and enabling organic movements in all New Member States. The present stage of development of the organic sector is quite different than the pioneering situation from twenty years ago. Today, the organic movement requires a different “language”, approach and advocacy tools. It is challenged to prove that it can create bridges and build alliances with other sustainable food and farming movements. Organic farming has become part of the mainstream and it ought to...

Autores: Niggli, Urs; Willer, Helga.
Organic farming research has been developed over 4 stages:     i) Pioneer farmers and scientists,   ii) pioneer private research institutes,   iii) organic farming chairs at universities and finally   iv) organic farming projects and institutes at state research institutions.     Today, organic agriculture has become finally accepted within agriculture and food research. The main key players in organic research in Europe are mentioned in the text.    Mainly in Europe, public funded research has shifted towards organic farming, whereas the research resources for conventional farming have been cut down considerably.     The paper gives an overview of the current status and the future prospects of organic farming research in Europe.

Autores: Thorsøe, Martin H.; Noe, Egon.
The organic food market is constantly evolving and organic products are exchanged at multiple markets constituted by particular forms of interaction between producers and consumers. The aim of this paper is to explore how the market influences organic production by looking at the relation between the market and producers engagement towards trust and quality building as well as farm level production strategy. We distinguish between four different market agencements, an arrangement of actors with agency: 1) standardizing market agencement, 2) personalizing market agencement 3) virtualizing market agencement and 4) aesthetifying market agencement. Through qualitative interviews with organic producers, several different strategies are identified. The data...

Significant differences in earthworm populations and soil properties were found in three sections of a farm at Haughley in Suffolk that, since 1939, had either an organic, a mixed conventional, or a stockless intensive arable regime.  Compared with the mean earthworm population of a 1,000 year old permanent pasture of 424.0 m-2; an organic field had 178.6 m-2; a mixed field 97.5 m-2; and a stockless field 100.0 m-2.  Species recorded were: Allolobophora chlorotica, accounting for most of the increase in the organic section; Aporrectodea caliginosa, dominant in the stockless section; Aporrectodea icterica; Ap. longa; Ap. nocturna; Ap. rosea; and Lumbricus terrestris.   Soil analyses showed the organic soil had higher moisture, organic C, and mineral N, P,...

The role of a civil society organization in the development of the domestic organic market in Turkey
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Autores: Akyüz, A. Alper; Aslan, Bulut; Demir, A. Yonca.
In this paper, we report of a case from Turkey where a civil society organization took an active role in influencing laws, regulations and their implementations regarding organic agriculture and the marketing of organic products. Although the country’s climate and biodiversity is suitable for organic agriculture, the domestic market remained underdeveloped; the organic sector was directed mainly towards exports. By establishing the first marketplace solely for certified organic products in 2006, a non-governmental organization became the locomotive of the domestic sector. The process that leads to the 100% organic bazaar exhibits a contingent characteristic where particularly social and symbolic capital were mobilized by the NGO together with a framing of...

Organic Farming. An International History
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints
Beginning as a small protest to the industrialization of agriculture in the 1920s, organic farming has become a significant force in agricultural policy, marketing, and research. No longer dismissed as unscientific and counterproductive, organic techniques are now taken seriously by farmers, consumers, scientists, food processors, marketers, and regulatory agencies in much of the world. Organic farming is both dynamic and forward-looking but is also rooted in tradition. It is these traditions that can provide valuable starting points in debates over how organic farming should meet new challenges such as globalization, the emergence of new production techniques, and growing concern over equity and social justice in agriculture. Complementing general...

A History of the Organic Agriculture Movement in Australia
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints

Australia’s involvement in the organic movement is dated from 1928 in this account. There have been four ‘waves’ of organic advocacy in Australia. The First Wave (1920s &amp; 1930s) follows Rudolf Steiner’s 1924 call at Koberwitz (now Kobierzyce, Poland) for a differentiated agriculture. Australian anthroposophists, beginning with Ernesto Genoni, responded to this call by joining Steiner’s Agricultural Experimental Circle (AEC) of Anthroposophical Farmers and Gardeners  which was coordinated from Dornach, Switzerland by Dr Ehrenfried Pfeiffer. Bob Williams presented the first public lecture on biodynamics at the home of Walter Burley and Marion Mahoney Griffin at Castlecrag (Sydney) in 1938.

This paper analyses the current situation as well as the previous and potential development of the organic sectors in Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. Concerning domestic productions and consumptions, permanent grassland areas have been most prominent, and consumers prefer fresh products in organic quality. In all countries, a mix of legal, financial and communicative policy instruments is currently being applied to stimulate both the organic markets’ supply and demand side. On the basis of this support, the sector has established and achieved noticeable market shares in Germany and especially in Austria so that these countries highly depend on imports to cover their domestic demand for organic foods nowadays. However, the organic sector’s...

Autores: Moschitz, Heidrun; Hrabalova, Andrea; Stolze, Matthias.
To better understand the potential for successful and long-term establishment of environmental policy, the aim of this paper is to explore the network dynamics of a policy field that has become well established in the EU: organic farming. We look at the dynamics of the organic farming policy network in the Czech Republic over a period of ten years by applying a comparative formal network analysis. We focused in particular on the distribution of power between actors and how capacities of policy actors have evolved between 2004 (its year of accession to the EU) and 2014. We conclude that the organic farming policy network in the Czech Republic has been highly dynamic and has changed from one that was decidedly influenced by organic sector organizations to a...

Tasmania enjoys a reputation as clean and green. It offers an apparent good fit with a vision of organic production as well as some natural advantages. Tasmania’s moratorium on genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is an advantage for organic production.This paper presents some context for the progress of Tasmania from the puffery of ‘clean and green’ to the standard of organic. Australia leads the world accounting for 45% of the world’s certified organic agricultural land (22.69 m ha of 50.92 m ha.). Tasmania has been an early mover as an advocate of organics with organised advocacy dating from 1946. Despite this enthusiasm, Tasmania only accounts for 0.01% of Australia’s certified organic agricultural land and 4% of Australia’s certified organic...

Sharpening Up Research on Organics: Why We Need to Integrate Sectoral Policy Research into Mainstream Policy Analysis
Provedor de dados: Organic Eprints

As a fast growing state sponsored industry, the organic food sector is likely to attract the increased attention of policy analysts who are interested in industry development. We critically review the European comparative research on growth in the organic sector, focusing on policy analysis. A common element in these accounts is that findings are by no means clear on why variation in organic growth between countries exists. The literature provides a range of possible variables explaining divergent patterns of organic sector development but solid conclusions are elusive. We suggest that future policy orientated research on organic sector apply existing theories on public policy and carefully design studies in accordance with the prescriptions of the...
