Organic Sales Growing

The total sales of organic products (both food and non-food) was $24.6 billion in 2008, up 17.1 percent over 2007 sales despite tough economic times, according to the Organic Trade Association’s 2009 Organic Industry Survey. The United Nations Trade and Development Agency projects the demand for organic food will grow 46% over the next five years. That's great news for those of us that enjoy organic food and organic products - more demand equates to more supply (and lower prices)!
