摘要

Organic farming in Germany benefits from a large number of different national and regional political measures, in addition to a positive development of general demandudof organic products. Despite these favorable conditions, however, fewer and fewer farms convert to organic farming. With the aim to expand the organically farmed landudin Germany, the BMEL initiated the "Strategy for the Future of Organic Farming". One topic is to examine the possibilities of the development and improvement of theudcurrent organic subsidies policy. A nationwide survey amongst organic farms will also take into consideration the support of organic farming from the farmers’ point of view.udIn this context, 218 organic farms from all over Germany who participated in a comprehensive structural and situational analysis of organic farming in Germany in the year 2002/2003 were asked to participate in a follow-up survey. For 210 farmers it was possible to contact them again, 177 are still working under organic guidelines, 92 agreed to participate again.
