Organic Agriculture is Good for All, so has a Bright Future…

China and India are the major organic agriculture producers in Asia. But other Asian countries too are working well to increase their share in the global organic market. Some countries worth mentioning are Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand, which are making systematic efforts to promote organic agriculture in their own ways. In the case of Sri Lanka, it has 6% area under organic agriculture that is totally export focused. In Korea, Hansalim is one good example of a cooperative association that produces environmentally friendly organic products, and organizes direct trade between farmers and consumers. It deals not only with a range of food items but also books, cosmetics, eco-friendly detergents and toilet rolls, etc. Food production follows agreed standards, for example, using no pesticides or chemical fertilizers and avoiding artificial additives. Consumer members monitor all processes and help inspect production centres. Here the producer takes responsibility for the consumer’s life and the consumer, in turn, takes responsibility for the producer’s livelihood.
