Consumer demand for organic products has widened over the last
decade. While new producers have emerged to help meet demand,
market participants report that a supply squeeze is constraining
growth for both individual firms and the organic sector overall.
Partly in response to shortages in organic supply, Congress in 2008
included provisions in the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act that,
for the first time, provide financial support to farmers to convert
to organic production. This book examines recent economic research
on the adoption of organic farming systems, organic production
costs and returns, and market conditions to gain a better
understanding of the organic supply squeeze and other emerging
issues in this rapidly changing industry.
