ORGANIC BRAZILIAN LEGISLATION

The Administrative Orders submitting the Regulatory Instructions for the Regulation of the Organic Sector in Brazil to public consultation have already been published.

The Regulatory Instructions (RIs) that complete the regulation of Law 10831/2003, known as the Organic Agriculture Law, are already in public consultation for a period of 30 days, a term that was agreed upon within the Organic Agriculture Sector Chamber (Câmara Setorial de Agricultura Orgânica – CSAO).

We can say that this is one of the victories in a long process, starting with the first alternative product fairs of the seventies and up to the drawing up of these RIs.

A study by Embrapa Monitoramento por Satélite (EMS) shows that
Brazil is one of the countries that have most preserved their forests

Data that the then Minister of Agriculture, Luis Carlos Guedes, had announced at the opening ceremony of BioFach América Latina/ExpoSustentat 2006, in São Paulo, have now been officially published by Embrapa (Brazilian Agricultural Research Co.).
Of all the countries in the world, Brazil is the one that has cut down least of its forests. This is the main conclusion reached by a study ordered by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock Breeding and Supply from Embrapa Monitoramento por Satélite (EMS) – Embrapa’s satellite monitoring arm – and widely published by the press at the beginning of the year.
