OF methods, as an alternative to conventional agricultural routines, were mostly developed by farmers themselves, then verified in practice and afterward proved by means of science and research. Nowadays, OF is defined by law and government-issued trademarks for organic foodstuffs. OF is financially supported within rural development programs (agroenvironmental and food-quality programs). Both organically farmed acreage and the organic food market are growing continuously.
