Asian Organic Food Industry Coming of Age
With production and demand increasingly rapidly, the Asian
organic food industry is coming of age. Over 4 million hectares of
farmland is certified organic in the region, however a large disparity
exists between producer and consumer countries. The disparity leads to a
two-tier organic food industry.
The first-tier
comprises producer
countries in
which
organic crops are mainly grown for export markets.
Countries like India and Thailand with
large
agricultural sectors
are in this tier. Important organic crops include fruits, vegetables, herbs, spices,
cereals & grains and tea. China leads in this tier; the country is
firmly established as a global source of organic ingredients.
Demand for organic foods is concentrated in
second-tier countries.
Countries like Singapore and Taiwan
are large consumers of
organic foods but not important producers.
As a consequence, these country markets are highly dependent on imports,
which come in from a number of continents. The Japanese market remains
the most important in this tier.
