The 12th Survey on organic agriculture world-wide
› The 12th survey on organic agriculture worldwide was carried out by the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture FiBL and the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements IFOAM.
› The survey was carried out between July 2010 and February 2011. › Data were received from 160 countries (2008: 154 countries).› New countries included: Belarus, Channel Islands, Cook Islands,
Grenada, Haiti, Myanmar.› Updated data on area and producers were available for 142 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; › Exports and imports.
› The results are published in the yearbook ‘The World of Organic Agriculture 2011’ and at www.organic-world.net.

Further organic areas
› Apart from the organic agricultural land there are further organic areas, the largest part of these are wild collection areas and areas for beekeeping,
› Further areas are aquaculture, forest and grazing areas on non-agricultural land.
› It should be noted, that many countries do not report these areas, as they only communicate the agricultural land.
› The total area for these areas was 41.9 million hectares, constituting an increase of 10 million hectares compared with 2008.
› Large increases of wild collection and beekeeping areas occurred in Cameroon and Russia.

Organic producers 2009
› For the current survey, a total of 1.8 million organic producers was reported,
› This is an increase of more than 0.4 million compared with 2008.
› In India, the number of organic producers almost doubled in 2009.
› According to the data obtained, more than three quarters of the producers are located in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
› The country with the most producers is India, followed by Uganda and Mexico.
› It should be noted that not all certifiers reported the number of producers; their number is probably higher than 1.8 million.

Organic farming in developing & transition countries and emerging markets 2009
› About one third of the world’s organic agricultural land – 13.4 million hectares - is located in developing/transition countries and in emerging markets.* Most of this land is in Latin American countries, with Asia and Africa in second and third place.
› 1.5 million producers are in these countries. › *Countries listed in the List of Recipients of Official
Development Assistance (ODA) of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The list is available at www.oecd.org/dataoecd/23/34/37954893.pdf.

Summary
› The organic agricultural land area (37.2 million hectares in 2009) has increased by 2 million hectares or 6 % between 2008 and 2009.
› The organic agricultural land has increased in most countries/areas and in all regions.
› In some countries/areas and for some crops the growth rates were considerably higher.
› 1.8 million organic producers (up 0.4 million from 2008) were reported, most of these are in developing/transition and emerging market countries.
› For more and more countries data on organic agriculture are available; but data collection and processing need to be improved in many countries, not only on land area and operators, but also on market and international trade data.
