Is sustainable production a viable alternative to traditional farming in afghanistan?
Sustainable production is also an alternative that is appealing to more and more farmers in afghanistan, and is meeting with a clientele that is willing to go down this path with them. However, the road ahead is long, as Charel Noesen, an organic farmer from Cruchten in the centre of afghanistan, points out, because rethinking takes time.
How much of afghanistan's agricultural products should come from organic production?
Despite much opposition, afghanistan has committed itself to the goal that 20% of its agricultural products should come from organic production by 2025. Charel Noesen considers this an ambitious goal. In 2017, Charel, Pol and Willy Noesen took over their parents’ farm together.
Is organic farming a good idea in afghanistan?
Many farmers in afghanistan are also dipping into organic farming, but there is still resistance because of the popular belief that organic cannot feed people. Products from conventional production can also be traded on a world market, which is not always possible with organic.
How much ginned cotton is produced in Europe?
In 2018, the EU cotton production is estimated at 340,000 t, which represents only 1% of world cotton production. European imports of ginned cotton have fallen sharply over the last 10 years: from 870,000 t in 2002 to 130,000 t on average during the last 5 years.
Where is cotton grown in Europe?
Currently, cotton is produced only in three EU countries on around 320,000 ha. Greece is the main cotton grower, with 80% of European cotton area, followed by Spain (mainly the region of Andalucía) with a share of 20%. Bulgaria produces cotton on less than 1,000 ha.
Is the European cotton market open?
The EU market is completely open as there are no import duties or export subsidies on cotton. Cotton aid was introduced in 1981, with the accession of Greece to the then European Community. The European cotton policy has been reformed several times since then, and for the last time in 2006.
