In fact, in recent years, there is a strong upward trend, as the organic crops area in the country increased from 3,426km2 in 2016 (6.51% of total crops) to 4,101km2 (7.96%) in 2017, to 4,926km2 in 2018 (9.32%) and to 5,288km2 (10.26%) in 2019. This trend is on par with the general trend recorded in recent years throughout Europe.
