Description:
Sector body for Organic Agriculture in South Africa. SAOSO is driving the development of an ethical and equitable food system based on Agro-ecological practice. We aim to preserve our biodiversity and soils for the 7th generation by demonstrating the viability of Organic agriculture as an alternative to industrial agriculture. We are driving innovation in the value chain and stimulation of the green economy through green job creation and environmental rehabilitation using environmentally regenerative practices. Organic agriculture is currently unsupported by the SA government and we are working closely with private sector partners in the interim, while we advocate for the recognition of Organic agriculture in South Africa.
