| Land use and production The Croatian organic agriculture sector is still in an early stage of development but has recorded a rapid expansion over the last three years. According to the estimates of the Ministry of Agriculture, Croatia has some 7’000 hectares under organic management managed by some 250 (mostly family) farms. Cereals seem to account for more than 70 percent of the total organic production in Croatia. State regulations and support Organic farming in Croatia is regulated by the La w on Organic Agriculture adopted in 2001. In 2003 the government introduced subsidies to support organic farming (400 EUR/ha of arable land). This had a great impact on the development of the sector and the area under organic management in 2003 has increased... |

| Buying organic remains the best strategy for US consumers to avoid eating GM food. The voters of California have rejected the proposal to label GMO food. The proposition was narrowly lost, 47% to 53% (4,326,770 ‘Yes’ votes vs. 4,884,961 ‘No’ votes). Proposition 47 was supported by the organic sector but opposed by a coalition of GMO companies and US multinational food companies. Californians were invited to vote into law ‘The California Right to Know Genetically Engineered Food Act’. Section 1(a) declared that “California consumers have the right to know whether the foods they purchase were produced using genetic engineering”. Section 1 (e) of the proposed Act declared that “Polls consistently show that more than 90 percent of the public want to know if... |

| In the last decade, the interest in organic agriculture has grown both within the scientific community and among general public. Organic agriculture is a new agricultural production system that tries to fully utilize farming potential and to satisfy all the social and economic needs while preserving the natural ecosystem and ensuring environmental protection. This paper gives a short overview of organic agriculture and organic food market development as well as an overview of the distribution channels for organic food in specific countries. The second part of the paper describes the research of the organic food category that was conducted on a sample of leading food retailers in the Republic of Croatia. Based on the methodology applied, it is determined... |

| Since July 2010, prepacked organic food produced in the EU must be labelled with the new mandatory EU logo for organic food. In this paper we analyse the willingness-to pay (WTP) of German consumers for products with different voluntary organic certification logos to draw recommendations for the future use of organic logos. Data was collected in choice experiments with 405 consumers, based on which a number of random parameter logit models were estimated. According to our results, German consumers are willing to pay a considerable price premium for products with the Demeter logo as well as for products with the ‘Bio-Siegel’ compared to products just labelled with the word ‘organic’. The high acceptance of the Bio-Siegel among German consumers shows that... |

| Samples of suckling lambs (n=40) of two breeds reared under conventional and organic conditions were analysed to asses physico-chemical characteristics, including instrumental texture, and nutritional quality in terms of fatty acid composition. Consumer acceptance was also studied using the home-use test. Results revealed that organic suckling lamb meat is healthier as shown by the lower saturated fatty acid levels, the higher polyunsaturated fatty acid contents and the higher 6/3 ratiko. The organic meat had lower instrumental hardness, received higher scores in all sensory parameters, and had statistically better fat sensation and higher ratings for overall liking. These results lend support to the notion among consumers that organic products are... |

| The market share of organic wine is remarkably lower than the market share of organic food in general. The objective of this paper was to analyse the wine preferences of consumers of organic food in Germany in order to identify how demand for organic wine could be increased. Choice experiments and structured interviews were conducted with 600 consumers of organic food. In the choice experiments, the participants clearly preferred organic wine over conventional wine. However, preferences for organic wine were lower among people with a high interest in wine, i.e. people who place high importance upon vintage, grape variety and winery. We conclude that targeted marketing activities are needed to convince these people about the quality of organic wine.... |

| The expansion of livestock production throughout the world has led to increased demand for high protein animal feed. This expansion has created economic benefits for livestock farmers and other actors in the chain, but also resulted in environmental and social side effects. This study aims to identify a set of sustainability issues that cover the environmental, economic and social dimensions of soymeal and beef production chains. The method applied combines the results of multiple studies, including a literature review and stakeholder surveys. Stakeholder surveys were conducted for three different interest groups (business, consumers, and other stakeholders) and two geographical regions (Latin America and the European Union). Our results reveal that the... |

| Il risultato principale della nostra ricerca ha confermato che la comunicazione degli attributi etici addizionali offre a molte aziende biologiche una reale opportunità di differenziazione dei propri prodotti nel più vasto mercato biologico. Molti consumatori e produttori sono d’accordo sul fatto che la produzione biologica in conformità al regolamento UE sull’agricoltura biologica (834/2007) non rappresenta la ‘fase finale’ in riferimento a una produzione alimentare sostenibile ed etica. Un numero crescente di consumatori acquista prodotti che siano realizzati secondo standard ‘etici’ non attualmente ricompresi nelle norme previste dal regolamento UE sull’agricoltura biologica o che – in ogni caso – vanno al di là degli standard minimi ivi previsti.... |

| In 2009, a big market research has been carried out by Vitosha research company, including 120 producers, retailers and wide number of consumers. This research is a huge document written on 273 pages with a lot of analyses, the most important of which is SWOT analysis of organic market in Bulgaria. Main conclusions from SWOT analysis are: Bulgaria has sufficient objective conditions to become a serious player in the bioproduction. As a serious potential can be reported the presence of a suitable environment and agricultural soils that could be adapted to organic farming. Regulations of organic production, and import and export of such products are clearly regulated and aligned with European requirements. Problems facing the bioproduction are more of... |

| Alternative Food Networks (AFN) is often mentioned as a way to reconfigure the link between producers and consumers and build trust in the food system. This article explores the function, configuration and generation of trust in AFNs. The structure is twofold. First we discuss the theoretical underpinnings of trust, in both recent AFN literature and in sociology, and develop a conceptual framework for analyzing trust in AFN. Second, we explore the function, configuration and generation of trust in the Food Communities of Copenhagen and Aarhus (in Danish: “Fødevarefællesskaberne”). The Food Communities are a network of urban consumers sourcing organic products from regional producers. Empirically, the article demonstrates that trust functions as a mechanism... |

| Auch wenn der Markt für ökologische Lebensmittel nach wie vor steigende Umsätze aufweist, liegt der Marktanteil von Öko-Lebensmitteln nur bei 4,7%. Initiativen zur Steigerung des Marktanteils müssen verschiedene Verbrauchersegmente gezielt ansprechen. Dieses Forschungsvorhaben möchte sich der Zielgruppe der jungen Erwachsenen widmen. Die übergeordnete Frage lautet deshalb wie junge Erwachsene gezielter als bisher adressiert und für die Nachfrage von Öko-Lebensmitteln motiviert werden können. Grundlage für das Kaufverhalten sind Werthaltungen, Einstellungen und Präferenzen für (Öko-)Lebensmittel. Daraus ergibt sich als Zielsetzung dieses Projekts die Ermittlung von Werthaltungen, Einstellungen und Präferenzen von jungen Erwachsenen mit Bezug zum... |

| Despite numerous studies reporting on organic consumer profiles, there is a gap in thorough understanding of consumers motivations for buying local and organic products. More precisely, do consumers prefer local products because they want to support local producers or do environment and the question of food miles matter in their choice ? Besides, very little is known about organic consumers in developing countries, since most surveys are conducted in most developed countries. Our purpose is to fill this double gap, by conducing qualitative surveys based on individual interviews in four developing countries (Brazil, Egypt, Uganda and China) and two European countries, France and Denmark, in order to study consumers choice for organic products from... |

| The widely used concept of sustainability is seldom precisely defined, and its clarification involves making up one’s mind about a range of difficult questions. One line of research (Bottom-Up) takes sustaining a system over time as its starting point and then infers prescriptions from this requirement. Another line (Top-Down) takes as its starting point an economical interpretation of the Brundtland Commission’s suggestion that the present generation’s need-satisfaction should not compromise the need-satisfaction of future generations. It then measures sustainability at the level of society and infers prescriptions from this requirement. These two approaches may conflict, and in this conflict the Top-Down Approach has the upper hand, ethically... |
