The Covid crisis has boosted the consumption of organic food, according to data from the European Organic Movement for Organic Agriculture.
Between 10 and 20 years, the turnover of the markets for organic food in the countries has been increasing in the last year, but in Bulgaria there is no data on how much and what organic foods are bought.
About 6.8% of the food on the menu of every French family is organic. Organic security there is rapidly entering kindergartens and public catering services, Stoilko Apostolov of the Bioselena Foundation.
“Consumer champions to stay in Switzerland and Denmark. There, sales growth is about 20 percent.
Germany is the largest organic market in Europe.
“About 15 billion euros is turnover in 2020 from the sale of organic production and beverages, 10 percent of the land is certified for organic production.”
In Bulgaria only 2.3% of the land is occupied with organic production and according to this indicator we are in the queue in Europe. There is no data whether the pandemic in our country has increased the desire for healthy eating.
“We don’t know anything, we’re playing blind grandmother a little.”
The sector’s observations are that Bulgarian organic food is not enough.
“This vacuum is being filled with products imported from Europe, which are, among other things, much more expensive,” said Stoilko Apostolov.
