The Disadvantages
There is an urgent need to create awareness about organic produces and to build technical and marketing infrastructure to support the demands of producers and consumers.
You will have to pay about 15 to 50 per cent, depending on the product, as it includes the cost of packaging and labelling. However, remember that these can disappear when supply increases, especially in those countries with policies to encourage organic farming.
Compared to conventional foodstuff, this is more perishable as it doesn't use pesticides or preservatives.
For customers, it becomes necessary to buy in small quantities and replenish stocks regularly.
