Prospects for organic agriculture

Organic agriculture is a production system that does not use synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, growth regulators, livestock and poultry feed additives in agricultural production, and does not use transgenic technology and products. This system requires that in production, crop rotation, straw, leguminous crops, green manure, livestock manure, organic waste, minerals containing mineral nutrients as the main source of soil fertility, and physical, biological and ecological measures as the main means to control weeds, pests and diseases.

The core of organic agriculture is to establish and restore the biodiversity and virtuous cycle of agricultural ecosystem, so as to maintain the sustainable development of agriculture, and realize the organic combination of biology, environment and nature.

The agricultural products produced in this mode are environment-friendly and safe food with rich nutrition and good quality.

The development of organic agriculture can help solve a series of problems caused by modern agriculture, such as serious soil erosion and land quality decline, the heavy use of pesticides and fertilizers caused environmental pollution and energy consumption, the reduction of species diversity, etc. It also helps to improve farmers' income and develop rural economy, which has great potential for development.

The development of organic agriculture started relatively late in our country and is now in the developing stage. Around 2011, Chinese organic agriculture was still in its infancy, at that time, consumers' understanding of organic vegetables was not high, and unlike now, many consumers promoted eating organic vegetables.

Looking at the development status of the organic agriculture market, we can see that organic agriculture has been in a state of ice and fire, and most of the organic farms are in the red. There are two main reasons. First, there is still a long way to go before organic agriculture becomes the mainstream. Second, market trust is not high enough.

Prospects for organic agriculture

Now the requirements of consumers for agricultural products are not limited to quality and price, but the requirements for quality are becoming higher and higher. Many discerning entrepreneurs have begun to pay attention to the problem of brand image. On the one hand, they attach importance to the quality of products to prevent the possible pictures from the source. On the other hand, they attach importance to the appearance design of products and increase publicity efforts to establish the brand image. Many small but beautiful, small but strong agricultural products are very distinctive. The current agricultural product market has been transformed from the simple product price or quality competition to brand awareness, reputation and other comprehensive strength competition.

In addition, people attach great importance to food safety. Organic food has moved to the high-end consumer table and become a healthy lifestyle. Many enterprises are involved in agriculture, among which "organic" has become a big selling point. Although organic food is 20~50% more expensive than ordinary food, it improves the health of food and is favored by consumers all over the world. At present, its share of the international market is growing rapidly, and China's organic market also has a huge market demand.
