As of 2023, Italy dominates the European durum wheat organic farming sector with 85.66% of the total converted area, followed by Spain at 6.93% and France at 3.26%. Significant positive variations occurred in Romania (16.5%) and Cyprus (18.66%), indicating expanding organic farming efforts. However, countries like Greece (-16.49%) and Bulgaria (-22.15%) experienced notable declines, reflecting potential challenges in their organic transitions.
Looking ahead, the increasing demand for sustainable agriculture is likely to foster growth in organic farming conversion across Europe, particularly in underrepresented regions. Enhanced agricultural policies and consumer preferences towards organic produce will drive this growth.
