The conversion of subtropical and tropical fruit areas to organic farming in Europe remains modest, with Cyprus leading at 0.09% of its total utilized agricultural area in 2023. Greece showed a notable year-on-year increase of 14.87% in 2023, while Italy, Croatia, Portugal, and Spain remained unchanged. Over the past five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests slow progress in this sector, with only minor annual changes, primarily seen in Greece.
Future trends to watch include potential policy shifts favoring organic farming, increasing consumer demand for organic products, and advancements in organic agricultural technology. These factors may stimulate growth and diversification in subtropical and tropical fruit farming across the region.
