The Second All-Russian Congress of Organic Producers will be held on December 4, 2023

We invite agricultural producers who are interested in organic production, want to optimize costs and agricultural technology, distinguish their products from the masses, get a fair price, reduce the pesticide and chemical load on the soil, restore soil fertility, and produce healthy, natural products. At the congress there will be an opportunity to meet and communicate with those who have already succeeded.
Every year, the Union of Organic Farming brings together producers of organic products from all over RUSSIA to discuss topical issues of industry development, exchange experiences and contacts. In 2022, 150 manufacturers from 26 regions of Russia took part in the congress. Today in Russia there are already 165 certified producers of organic products, which are included in the unified state register of the Ministry of Agriculture and can label their products with the state “organic” sign.

What will happen to organics in the next 10 years?
“Today we can already see that the situation is not the same as a year ago, when we did not understand where our movement was going. Today we can say that the 10-year development horizon is clear to us. Why do you need to come to the convention in person? This is an opportunity for us to get to know each other; not everyone knows each other. And such interaction helps well not only in business, but also in life. it is also an opportunity to take part in the discussion. This year we will devote a lot of time to discussion and our joint communication.
