There are 340 000 farm households, 90% os which are unaware of organic food, although development of organic agriculture is considered as a priority and promising direction in our country. This was told by Nune Darbinyan – founder of the organization “ECOGLOB” certifying organic food in Armenia. When we asked her what food is considered as organic, she answered:

Although development of organic agriculture has great prospects, however, the pace of progress is not satisfying. There are 340 000 farm households 90% of which are unaware of organic food. While organic food is in great demand in many countries, so the state supports farmers for the development o this sphere.

Organic products ensure people and future generations from dangerous consequences of contaminated food.
