Denmark has set a global benchmark in organic farming since introducing its first organic law in 1987, pioneering organic legislation worldwide. Subsequently, in 1991, the EU followed suit with its first common European organic regulations. Danish commitment has been pivotal in achieving global leadership in organic consumption. The "Green Transition Agreement for Danish Agriculture" outlines comprehensive strategies for achieving these goals. It emphasizes public-private partnerships, continuous political support, and robust research and innovation investments.

Key Objectives

  • Expansion of Organic Areas: The government aims to double organic farming areas to reduce pesticide use and environmental impact.
  • Consumer Demand: Encouraging increased consumption of organic products through public awareness campaigns and incentives.
  • Export Growth: Promoting Danish organic goods globally, leveraging the strong reputation for quality and sustainability.

  • Emissions from the agricultural sector will be reduced by 55 to 65 percent.
  • Restoration of peatlands to the highest possible degree in a new land reform.
  • Massive investment in crucial climate technology and ambition of doubling of organic farming.
  • Denmark is to be a world leader in plant-based foods and green proteins.
  • The Aquatic Environment – Voluntary measures, an environmental guarantee and a second opinion.
