Register of organic producers to be created in Belarus

5 декабря 2018

It will include farmers and agricultural enterprises that will be certified for compliance with state standards. This is provided for by the law on the production and circulation of organic products. Its basic norms will come into force next autumn. Previously, our farmers received such certificates abroad, the procedure was time-consuming and expensive. It is expected that Belarusian certification will reduce the costs of manufacturers and protect their interests. The country will have its own labeling of organic products.

Belarusian certification will allow entering international markets. Our country is interested in unifying standards with European requirements in order to increase export. Today, the demand for organic product in Europe exceeds the supply.
