Just 5% of the organic food produced in Argentina is consumed in the country; the rest is exported.
Argentina farms 3.5 million certified hectares of organic land, second in the world behind Australia with 7.0m certified hectares. The country has increased the amount of land it devotes to organic production in recent years to feed the boom in demand for organic products from Europe and North America.
In Argentina itself, organic food is not yet regulated and products do not even carry a logo to let people know they are organic, reported Infobae.
