Organic Industry Growth

It's now a reality, the Australian organic food and product industry is going off. A research report, financed by the Biological Farmers Of Australia (BFA), and coordinated by the University Of New England found that the organic food and drink industry has grown more than 25% in the last 4 years and retail sales are in excess on 500 million.

Another very interesting fact I plucked from the report is that Australia has 12,000,000 hectares of land dedicated to certified organic farming, which is the most in the world, and that the amount of organic farmers increased by 6% per year for the last 5 years.
