A careful study of the market of organic agricultural products showed that Ukraine is one of the leading exporters in this market in the world. The main principles of organic farming have been revealed. The supply and demand for organic agricultural products is comprehensively considered. A detailed analysis of the impact of legislative actions by the state outlined the barriers to entering the market, namely: the creation of a register of organic producers with the necessary certification and the opening of the land market.
