Descripción
This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions that took place during the International Seminar on Producing and Exporting Organic Fruit and Vegetables in Asia that was held in Bangkok, Thailand, in November 2003. It describes the market situation and outlook for organic horticultural products, the opportunities offered by the main import markets (North America, the European Union and Japan) and their import requirements. The publication examines the ways in which Asian countries could take advantage of potential market opportunities. Case studies on the development of the organic agriculture sector in Thailand, China and India are presented. The publication analyzes the constraints to overcome in order to successfully produce and export organic horticultural products, and discusses strategy options for the development of production and exports in Asia.
