Forecast: Rapeseed Area Fully Converted and Under Conversion to Organic Farming in Italy

In 2023, the area of rapeseed fully converted and under conversion to organic farming in Italy accounted for a minimal fraction of the Total Utilised Agricultural Area (UAA). From 2024 to 2027, forecasts indicate a stable share at 0.03%. A slight increase to 0.04% is expected in 2028. This suggests a gradual, albeit very slow, commitment to organic farming practices in this sector.

Future trends to watch for:

• Potential drivers for organic conversion such as policy changes or increased consumer demand.
• Technological advancements that could facilitate the transition to organic farming.
