Abstract

Organic farming has become an important element of European agri-environmental policy due to increasing environmental concern. This book describes in detail the environmental and resource use impacts of organic farming relative to conventional farming systems. Based on a set of environmental indicators for the agricultural sector on a European level, the policy relevance of the results are discussed.
