The European Commission co-finances and also directly organises campaigns and events to promote EU farm products worldwide. It aims to raise awareness of the efforts made by European farmers to produce quality products. These promotional activities help boost their profile on EU and international markets, in line with EU promotion policy.
The objective is to increase the awareness and recognition of the Union quality scheme on organic production.
Information and promotion programmes on the Union quality scheme on organic production method should be a key priority in the internal market since this scheme provides consumers with assurances on the sustainability, quality and characteristics of the product and the production process used and the environmental benefits they generate, achieve added value for the products concerned and enhance their market opportunities.
One of the expected results is to further increase the levels of recognition of the EU organic logo by the European consumers and increased knowledge of the information the organic logo aims to provide. According to special Eurobarometer (No 504), the awareness of the organic farming logo has increased by 29 percentage points since 2017 with 56% of European consumers who recognize the EU logo of organic farming.
