Market with organic food
Brought to you by: Honey Dressing. The expansion of the organic food market has surprised even the most pessimistic of consumers, and the prospects seem to be even greater for the years to come. Thus, estimates indicate that there will be a doubling of the present sales by 2011. Such statistics have imprinted a new direction to the development of the organic food market since more and more food farmers choose to adapt to the new requirements in order to generate more revenue. Consumers, on the other hand, want to avoid chemicals, antibiotics, hormones, pesticides and the genetically modified organisms that are present in conventional foods, and people are really looking for labels that read ORGANIC.
The extension of the organic food market is therefore rooted in the increased consumer awareness that non-organic foods are dangerous. The more we learn about the additives and chemical substances in non-organic products, the higher the eagerness to buy something organic. In time, the exposure of the processed food risks will determine a whole new evolution direction of the organic food market.
And people shop at supermarkets, which is why, retailers have to offer attractive products that are considered organic commodities at a very affordable price. Consequently, when you go to Wal-Mart you want to get organic foods at a fairly decent rate.
The organic food market is presently serviced by a huge number of producers worldwide. Although favored by some producers, exports of organic products is more difficult due to the perishable nature of the foods. The responsibility and the emphasis at the same time falls on local producers, farmers or farming groups that address the needs of the local market sector.
The organic food market is in a continuous expansion that goes hand in hand with an increase of productivity. This growth can only be possible if more and more manufacturers accept the rules and join the system. There is however a risk in this extension.
With the higher demand for organic foods, the sales of conventional products will drop. The problem here is that even the regular items on the organic food market can become subject to the production haste that will involve some form of automated processing or food treatment, thus, pushing the all organic principles a bit further, making them rather loose in fact.
Therefore, we could be assisting right now to a softening of the standards that make organic foods so appealing to the health-concerned consumers. Only through strict regulations and their solid implementation will the organic food market preserve its high quality standards. - 17269
