Department of European and Austrian Organic Law

The department sees itself as a communication, mediation, and integration platform between organic farmers, organic processors, their representatives, and national and European legislators and executive bodies for organic production. This bridge between the various interest groups aims to work with them to develop objective, practical, and legally compliant solutions, while simultaneously respecting and upholding the goals, principles, and guidelines of organic production. The department thus forms a vertical link from the grassroots level of producers to organic legislation at the European level.
