Policy support
National action plan: A national goal to be achieved in 2014 is for 20 % of agricultural land to be certified organic. Furthermore, there is also the target for 25 % of food procurement in the public sector to come from organic sources in 2013. The debate is currently ongoing as to whether a new target should be set.
Support under the EU rural development programme: Supports activities that contribute to organic production. Programmes for 2014 and the coming years have yet to be set up, so little can be said about the new system at present.
