Italy: Organic Products. Organic Agriculture in Italy, 2008. GAIN Report Number IT8019

摘要

Organics are an important and growing sector in Italian agriculture. Italy ranks first in Europe in both number of organic farms and organic cultivated land area. The Italian situation demonstrates the more general notion that while EU policies have influenced the development of organic agriculture in Europe as a whole, member state implementation of EU policies, along with member specific incentives, have had a critical role in the development of the organic sector.
