Abstract:

According to Organic Monitor from European Commission, in the period 2000-2012 the global market for organic products increased tree times. The tendencies registered at consumers�?? level regarding the organic products consumption influenced the agricultural production�??s systems also. At European union level more and more persons are preoccupied by a more healthy alimentation and here we refer to the origin, farming system and all the steps in the supply chain for the organic products, respecting the natural and environment factors and leading to better results for the environment�?? preservation and development. European union through Common Agricultural Policy, materialized in rural development programmes, develops various actions to support the organic producers and the use of a logo for organic farming has the aim to support the consumers�?? as the logo makes the organic products easier to be identified by the consumers, but also influence the organic overall market functioning. The analysis refers to the countries that are members of European Union and we tried to make a comparison between Romania and the other countries starting from the premise that the objectives, the principles and the standards applicable for organic farming are established through community and national legislation and the member states have to follow it.
