"L'etichettatura dei prodotti biologici"

Organic production can be defined as an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles, and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain, and enhance ecological harmony. European Regulation require that organic foods are grown without synthetic pesticides, growth hormones, antibiotics, modern genetic engineering techniques (including genetically modified crops), chemical fertilizers. Organic farming uses various methods to enhance or maintain soil fertility, such as crop rotation, tillage and cultivation practices, cover crops, and natural products (such as natural fertilizers, pesticides, and so on); it use specific methods to minimize air, soil, and water pollution. The compartment of the organic products has recorded in these years a notable growth on world staircase. Also in Italy it is verified a strong expansion; the primary production biological orientation is represented by cereals (23,1%) and fodder (20,7%), followed by olive oil (11,4%) and wine production (4%) below 3% all other crops. This paper analyzes the future dynamics about organic products and the importance role of: availability, trust and the high level of prices.
