Updating the regional database on organic farming in Baden-Württemberg

Ecozept has been commissioned by the Ministry of Food, Rural Areas and Consumer Protection (MLR) to comprehensively update the data on regional organic farming and the demand for organic food in Baden-Württemberg on the basis of the Ecozept-FiBL study "EVA - BIOBW 2030", published in 2021. The background to this is the further development of the "Action Plan Organic from Baden-Württemberg", for which the update provides an important data basis.

On the basis of this updated data, the MLR's measures for the expansion of organic farming can be designed to be as targeted and supportive as possible.

Developing an organic market report within the framework of the implementation of the Organic Action Plan of the state of Brandenburg (Germany)

The political objective of the state of Brandenburg is to convert 20 % of its agricultural land to organic farming by 2024. In 2021, the share of organic land is about 15 %. This increase requires substantial efforts as well as incentives for agriculture and its downstream/subsequent sectors/processes. Building on a study by AMI in 2022, the organic market report is intended to provide detailed data along the organic value chains in Brandenburg and Berlin and therefore offer guidance for corporate and political action.

A Study of Organic Corn, Sunflower, Soft Wheat and Soybean Supply Chains Worldwide

Following our studies on organic field crops in 2021 and on organic wheat and soybeans in 2023, Agence Bio, Terres Univia and Intercéréales seek to consolidate knowledge of the global organic field crop sector. To this end, they seek to continue analyzing the organic wheat and soybean supply chains while expanding the scope to include organic corn and sunflowers across 44 countries.

This third market study provides an overview of these supply chains in various countries, ranging from production (acreage, volumes, prices) to processing (volumes of oilcake, oil, flour, soy-based foods, etc.), as well as trade flows and end-product markets. The study includes an analysis of Europe’s dependence on imports, the political and regulatory environment in third countries and the identification of the main economic players in the various countries.
