Extractions: FiBL Frick Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL) The Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL, Switzerland) was constituted as a private foundation by organic farmers, scientists and politicians in 1973. It has established practice oriented agronomic and economic research, and is making new findings available to the organic farmers in Switzerland and abroad. (27.12.2002) A seminar to discuss organic farming research in Europe was held in Brussels in September 2002. Hosted by the European Commission's Research Directorate General, the seminar brought together scientists and policy-makers from across the continent. The results of this seminar, including a comprehensive documentation of the current status of organic farming research as well as of EU-funded research projects in the countries of Europe can now be downloaded at the internet site of DG Research of the European Commission The main documen t contains an extensive description of the organic farming research situation in all European countries. The Swiss report was compiled by FiBL director

Tracing The Evolution Of Organic/Sustainable Agriculture Tracing the Evolution of organic/Sustainable agriculture. A Selected and Annotated Bibliography Reprint 1945. 153 pp. index. Introduction by Sir Albert Howard. http://www.nal.usda.gov/afsic/AFSIC_pubs/tracing.htm
Extractions: Beltsville, Maryland 20705-2351 This bibliography cites writings through which may be traced the evolution of organic/sustainable agriculture and its pattern of philosophical and scientific aspects. It is not a comprehensive list, but the interested reader will find authors' references, individual bibliographies, and sources within the cited writings which will widen the traced path. Three recent compilations have been of invaluable assistance in the preparation of this bibliography: R. R. Harwood* and M. C. Merrill*, writing in 1983 I and A. M. Scofield* (who wrote a brief article on the origin of the name "organic farming" in 1986) included in their writings citations to selected important works, many of which are cited here. In addition, acknowledgment is made.of the work of the Canadian "Ecological Agriculture Project" (EAP) of the Macdonald College of McGill University, which has also compiled annotated lists of the literature of ecological agriculture and of selected background works of holistic approaches to agriculture. All of the works cited here are in the collection of the National Agricultural Library, and NAL's call numbers are included in the citations. Directly below the call-number is a "cited in" reference which refers to one or more of the following listed authors:
Extractions: Organic farming addresses fruits, vegetables, agronomic crops, livestock, soils, certification, marketing, pest control, value-added enterprises, post-harvest handling, and greenhouse production. Written largely in response to questions from farmers, the ATTRA publications in this section cover specific issues among the most widely produced organic crops.

Extractions: Organic Industry Organic agriculture is a holistic system of production with a principle goal to develop productive enterprises that are sustainable and harmonious with the environment. Organic foods are produced without the use of chemical fertilisers or synthetic pesticides, processed without the use of irradiation, and are not derived through genetic engineering. Livestock are provided ethical animal husbandry that promotes good health and prevents disease. Canada is an ideal country for producing organic food because of its large and varied land base and its cooler climate, which reduces pest and disease problems. Canadian farmers' support for the organic way of life is growing. Currently, there are approximately 3,100 certified organic producers working about 340,000 hectares, more than 320 processors and handlers, and about 45 certification bodies, many with accreditation from various foreign accreditors. Organic grain production is the fastest growing sector and also represents by far the largest export commodity. Most of Canada's organic products are exported, primarily to the United States where much of it is processed and resold to other markets. Canada also exports organic products to the European Union and Japan. Worldwide sales of organic products are estimated at $20 billion, mostly in the United States, European Union and Japan. The Canadian organic sector is positioning itself to increase and diversify its market share in these and other markets.
