The 16th Survey on organic agriculture world-wide

› The 16th survey on organic agriculture worldwide was carried out by the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture FiBL in cooperation with the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM – Organics International) and further partners.

› The survey was carried out between July 2014 and February 2015.› Data were received from 170 countries.› New countries included: Andorra, Bahamas, Iraq, Mayotte.› Updated data on area and producers were available for 129 countries. › Data were provided by almost 200 country experts (representatives from NGOs,

certification bodies, governments, researchers).› The following data were collected: Area data (including land use and crop

details); Producers, other operator types; Domestic market values; Export and imports data; Livestock data (animal heads and production tones);

› The results are published in the yearbook “The World of Organic Agriculture 2015” and at www.organic-world.net.

Organic agriculture in Africa 2013

› In Africa, there were 1.2 million hectares of certified organic agricultural land (data 2013).

› This constitutes about three percent of the world’s organic agricultural land.

› More than 572’000 producers were reported. › The countries with the most organic land are Uganda (230’232

hectares), Tanzania (186’537 hectares), and Ethiopia (160’987 hectares).

› The highest shares of organic land are in Sao Tome and Prince (7.2 percent), Egypt (2.3 percent), and Comoros (1.7 percent).

› The majority of certified organic produce in Africa is destined for export markets.

› The European Union, as the major recipient of these exports, is Africa’s largest market for agricultural produce.

Latin America: Key figures 2013

› In Latin America, more than 200’000 producers managed 6.6 million hectares of agricultural land organically in 2013.

› This constitutes 15 percent of the world’s organic land and 1.1 percent of the regions agricultural land.

› The leading countries are Argentina (3.2 million hectares), Uruguay (0.9 million hectares), and Brazil (0.7 million hectares).

› The highest shares of organic agricultural land are in the Falkland Islands/Malvinas (36.3 percent), French Guiana (11.9 percent), and the Dominican Republic (9.3 percent).

43Source: FiBL-IFOAM Survey 2015

Latin America: Key figures 2013

› Most organic products from Latin American countries are sold on the European, North American or Japanese markets. Popular goods are especially those that cannot be produced in these regions, as well as off-season products.

› Thus, the development of robust local markets is still a major challenge, without which the sustainability of organic production cannot be achieved. Important crops are tropical fruits, grains and cereals, coffee, cocoa, sugar, and meats. Most organic food sales in the domestic markets of the countries occur in major cities.

Organic Agriculture in North America: Key figures 2013

› In North America, 3 million hectares are managed organically, of these are two million in the United States and more than 0.8 million in Canada.

› This represents 0.7 percent of the total agricultural area in the region and 7 percent of the world’s organic agricultural land.

› In 2013, the organic market continued to grow in North America, reaching almost 27 billion euros. In Canada, the organic market grew by 10 percent in 2013, and in the United States the organic market grew by almost 11.5 percent.

Organic agriculture in Oceania: Key figures 2013

› This region includes Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands. › Altogether, there are almost 23‘000 producers, managing 17.3 million

hectares. A growth of over 5 million hectares was reported in 2013. This increase should be attributed to an update of the Australian area data, where five million hectares more were reported, due to rangeland areas coming into organic production, after some years of no data updates.

› This constitutes 4.1 percent of the agricultural land in the area and almost 40 percent of the world’s organic land.

› Ninety-nine percent of the organic land in the region is in Australia (17.2 million hectares, 96 percent of which is extensive grazing land), followed by New Zealand (106’753 hectares), and Samoa (33’515 hectares).

› The highest shares of all agricultural land are in Samoa (11.8 percent), followed by French Polynesia (5.5 percent), Australia (4.2 percent) and Vanuatu (2.2 percent).
