Organics still gaining ground in California
In the three-year period from 2013 to 2016, farm gate sales of California organic agriculture more than doubled as the California organic farming industry saw increases in both acreage and the number of organic growers. This was made clear by the “Statistical Review of California Organic Agriculture”, recently released by the UC Agricultural Issue Center.
The report covers the period from 2013 to 2016, showing how the total number of organic growers in California grew by 1,020 and the total number of organic acres farmed grew by 927,924, while farm gate sales nearly doubled during the four year period from $1.54 billion in 2013 to $3.12 billion in 2016.
