Geplante Neufassung der EU-Öko-Verordnung in der Kritik

Eichert, Christian; Zorn, Alexander; Dabbert, Stephan.

Die Einbindung des Öko-Sektors in die Entstehung des Entwurfs einer neuen EU-Öko-Verordnung war unzureichend. Der Zielplan wurde geändert – nicht zuletzt aufgrund von Protesten aus dem Bio-Sektor. Nun ist es besser möglich, Kritik und Verbesserungsvorschläge einzubringen.

Existing and Potential Approaches for Fair Pricing in Domestic Fair Trade

Eichert, Christian; Mayer, Evelyn.

Aspects of fair trade gain a growing relevance in the current debate on the further development and reorientation of the domestic (mid-European) organic sector. Fair trade aspects were part of the implicit self-conception since the organic movement was established. The authors would like to show up ways how these implicit ideals can be carried over into explicit standards comprehensible to the consumer. This request can be reached via liberal, restrictive or transparent fair pricing schemes.

The paper is based on the OrganiST (Organic Shops in Tübingen) project. Its aim is to develop and discuss marketing strategies for smaller and regionally orientated organic shops in order to stay attractive for their customers. The researched shops are located in Tübingen (South Germany), where we found different categories of small and medium organic shops. The competition on the market for organic food has dramatically increased. In the investigated town, the competition will increase further, because an organic supermarket of a big chain (Alnatura) is going to open soon. Some of the small and medium sized organic shops have come into troubles. They have problems to hold their regular customers and strategies to gain new customers are often lacking....

Avant-propos La Commission européenne a publié en juin 2004 le Plan d’action européen pour l’alimentation et l’agriculture biologiques. Avec ce plan, la Commission visait à évaluer la situation de l’agriculture biologique et à fonder les bases de développement de sa politique future. Au niveau national, de nombreux gouvernements ont également développé des plans d’action pour promouvoir l’agriculture biologique. Il est donc apparu nécessaire de considérer comment de tels plans d’action pouvaient être évalués avec succès. Le plan d’action européen a été la motivation principale pour la DG Recherche de la Commission européenne de financer un projet de soutien spécifique, l’ORGAP, Projet No. CT-2005-006591 au sein du 6ème programme-cadre de recherche....

Aktionspläne für biologische Landwirtschaft – Planung, Durchführung und Evaluation

In 2004, the European Action Plan for Organic Food and Farming was launched. Many European countries have also developed national Organic Action Plans to promote and support organic agriculture. As part of the EU funded ORGAP project (“European Action Plan of Organic Food and Farming - Development of criteria and procedures for the evaluation of the EU Action Plan for Organic Agriculture”) a toolbox to evaluate and monitor the implementation of national and European Action Plans has been developed. In order to communicate the results of this project as widely as possible, a practical manual for initiating and evaluating Organic Action Plans has been produced. This manual has been created to inspire the people, organisations and institutions...

Schmid, Otto; Stolze, Matthias; Lampkin, Nicolas; Dabbert, Stepan; Eichert, Christian; Michelsen, Johannes; Zanoli, Raffaele; Vairo, Daniela; Gonzalvez, Victor.

Within the EU funded project ORGAP a toolbox was developed for the evaluation of the European as well as national action plans fror Organics food and farming. Recommendations and a resource manual for policy makers and stakeholders were published, based on the analysis of national Organic Action Plans as well as stakeholder and expert consultation. The analysis showed that several EU member states have emphasised the need to balance supply-push policies with more market-focused demand-pull policies. An integrated approach is required through the formulation of multi-functional Organic Action Plans (OAPs), which also adress the dual roles of organic farming to provide public goods and satisfy consumer demand. Eight analysed Organic Action Plans...

Entwicklung des Ökologischen Landbaus in Deutschland von 1997 bis 2003

Auf dem Weg zur ökologischen Bienenhaltung

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.

Eichert, Christian; Knubben, Johannes.

Schon seit jeher genießt die Imkerei, wie kaum ein andeter landwirtschaftlicher Zweig, ein Grundvertrauen der Konsumenten, was sich durch ihre bis heute sehr naturnahe Herstellungsweise begründen läßt. Aber auch in der Bienenhaltung gibt es Probleme. Inwieweit kann die ökologische Bienenhaltung hier helfen?

Stakeholder-Partizipation: Zum Überarbeitungsprozess der EU-Öko-Verordnung

Zorn, Alexander; Eichert, Christian; Dabbert, Stephan.

This paper analyses the revision process of the EU Organic Regulation (EC) No. 2092/91. The first version of the revision of EU organic regulation was largely devel-oped without direct consultations with organic sector associations. This is certainly one of the reasons for the vehement criticism confronting the EU Commission in spring 2006. The concept of good governance can be helpful to judge the revision process from a broader perspective. In light of good governance, the principle of stakeholder involvement in the revision of the regulation has not always been ade-quately considered. From the authors point of view this principle should be a key principle in the further revisions.

Stakeholder involvement in action plans and/or policies for organic food and farming – ORGAP project recommendations

Schmid, Otto; Michelsen, Johannes; Eichert, Christian; Gonzalvez, Victor.

Stakeholder involvement in action plans and/or policies for organic food and farming are seen as part of good governance. Within the EU project ORGAP (www.orgap.org) recommendations are made how to consider and evaluate the level und degree of stakeholder involvement. Different stakeholder perspectives (organic principles, market, public goods) have to bee taken into account in the different stages of an action plan/policy (the design, decision, implementation and evaluation). Participatory methods can be useful if sufficient resources and time are available.

Bio im Supermarkt – Zustand und Entwicklungsaussichten des Bio-Angebots im deutschen Lebensmitteleinzelhandel

Stakeholder participation and stakeholder protest: On the planned revision of the EU Organic regulation

Der Sektor „Bio-Lebensmittel im Lebensmitteleinzelhandel (LEH)“ befindet sich in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland mit einem Anteil von etwa 2% des gesamten Lebensmittelmarktes (World Organic News 2003) noch „in den Kinderschuhen“. Seine Ausweitung wird von Experten als ein entscheidender Schritt zur Expansion des gesamten Bio- Sektors gesehen. Die Entwicklung der Bio-Lebensmittelsparte im LEH hat in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland gegenüber anderen europäischen Ländern erst mit Verzögerung eingesetzt. So können z.B. England, als auch die skandinavischen Länder auf eine langjährige und erfolgreiche Vermarktung von Bio-Produkten über den LEH zurückblicken. Die Gründe für die gehemmte Entwicklung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland sind auf den ersten...

POSTER In Germany organic stakeholders largely reject the draft of the revised EU Organic regulation. This was evident at a workshop held within the framework of the ORGAP project, which brought together leading representatives of the organic sector in March 2006. The objective of the workshop was to develop indicators on the evaluation of the European Action Plan for Organic Food and Farming. The concerns voiced by stakeholders on the revision of the regulation were so strong that we consider it appropriate to i) report them and ii) to put them into perspective as a contribution to further discussion. This is the objective of this poster. MANUSCRIPT FOR THE POSTER PRESENTATION (TRANSLATED AND REVISED FROM http://orgprints.org/8515) Shortly before...
