Section I
Frameworks, Actors and Resources
of Organic Research in the Mediterranean
1 Background
Organic agriculture is an emergent sector worldwide and the global
organic market is in a continuous growth. According to Organic Monitor
estimates, global sales of organic products doubled in value between
2003 and 2008. The highest increase is taking place in North America
(Sahota, 2010)1. Although this market expansion has been somewhat
slowed down in 2009, after the last financial crisis (2007 to date) that
struck almost the whole world, the positive growth continued throughout
that year (Sahota, 2010). The 2010 Organic Industry Survey conducted by
the Organic Trade Association (OTA), revealed that U.S. sales of organic
products continued to grow during 2009, whereas organic food and nonfood product sales in that year grew by 5.3 percent, despite the distressed
state of the economy (OTA, 2010)2.
Organic agriculture is a sprouting and continuously growing sector also in
the Mediterranean area as shown by the statistics of the past ten years.
The organic production methods attracted also the attention of local
governments and economic operators and found space in discussion
platforms and official strategies papers (Al-Bitar et al., 2010)3. The facts and
figures about organic agriculture statistics in this area have almost doubled
between 2001 and 2007 (Al-Bitar and Pugliese, 2008)4 and continue to
increase in terms of organic agricultural land. In 2008, with more than 143
thousand operators, organic agriculture in the Mediterranean covered an
area of about 5 million ha of which around 1.3 million ha of wild collection
and forests, mainly concentrated in Eastern Adriatic and some South-Eastern
countries (Al-Bitar et al., 2010). Many non-EU Mediterranean countries
already have a national law (Tunisia, Turkey, Serbia, Croatia, Macedonia
and Montenegro) and a well developed export market (Morocco, Tunisia,
Turkey and Serbia), while local markets are still emergent.

Behind all promising and developing sectors, there is customarily a
well structured, extended and defined work of research to back up the
improvement and assure the continuous progress of its different topics
and fields. When compared to other agricultural production systems,
organic agriculture is relatively recent (early 1920’s), and even if research
in organic farming has considerably increased in recent years, related
research works are still limited in some fields. To date, there is a relatively
small list of institutions and networks in the world fully dedicated to
organic research.
Organic farming research has been mainly concentrated in Europe that
is considered the cradle of organic research by Willer (2009)5. It is just
in Europe that the first research started with biodynamic agriculture in
the 1920’s. However, in the last few years studies and experiments on
organic farming and practices started emerging in other parts of the world
involving several actors. Some of them are the Organic Centre of Canada
(OACC), the Brazilian Agriculture Research Corporation (EMBRAPA) and
the Rodale Institute in the US. Other research activities related to organic
farming are mainly carried out by universities.
Besides local/national contexts and frameworks, organic research is also
developing thanks to different dynamic initiatives (platforms, associations
and networks) of global co-operation and coordination. These initiatives
are mostly conducted by European institutions that operate, among
others, at international level. They intend to support, boost and orient
research in organic themes in an all-inclusive perspective and exchange
knowledge in a continuously evolving organic sector.
The most notorious initiatives relating to organic research at international
level are: the International Society of Organic Agriculture Research
(ISOFAR)6, the International Centre for Research in Organic Food Systems
(ICROFS)7, the International Association of Organic Agriculture Research
Institutes (FiBL- International)8 and the Organic Research Centres Alliance
(ORCA) with FAO hosting its Secretariat9. All these initiatives have a

common objective which is the collaboration for the promotion and
enhancement of organic research worldwide.
At EU level, organic farming research formally started in the late
1980’s-early 1990’s with the very first EU-funded projects related directly
to organic farming issues. Prior to that, all research initiatives were
conducted by private associations and helped supporting and developing
the sector since its beginning. In some EU countries, like Germany
and Austria, research and teaching programmes in relation to organic
agriculture started in the early 1980’s and further developed in the mid1990’s. Today, there are several specialized university chairs and institutes
for organic agriculture that deal with organic research.
To date the EU contribution to the development of research in organic
agriculture has included the funding of around 70 research projects that
refer directly (explicit reference in the title) or indirectly (mentioned
as part of the topic) to organic agriculture (Zanoli, 2009)10. The first
contribution of EU to organic agriculture research dates back to the 2nd
Framework Programme - FP2 (1987-1993), wherein organic agriculture was
mentioned as part of the extensification and diversification of agricultural
production. At that time, only one project referred specifically to organic
agriculture in its title. The highest number (12 projects) of EU-funded
research projects directly referring to organic agriculture was registered
within FP5 whereas funds for organic research were highest on record
within FP6. At present, only three research projects entirely concern
organic agriculture in FP7 (2007-2013), probably due to the overall limited
research funding (Zanoli, 2009). The EU not only funded research projects
in organic agriculture but also launched initiatives for coordinating organic
research at EU level, through two main joint research programmes: CORE
Organic I and II. CORE Organic aims to enhance the quality, relevance and
utilisation of resources in European research in organic food and farming
through coordination and collaboration. CORE Organic I was a project in
the framework of the theme ERA-NET in FP6. After 2007, the partners of
CORE Organic expanded their network and developed a second ERA-NET,
CORE Organic II, started in 2010, that will launch transnational calls for

research projects on various themes of organic food and farming11.
Another initiative at EU level is the Research Technology Platform
‘Organics’ (TP Organics) hosted at the IFOAM EU Group office in Brussels.
It is considered as a podium for organic food and farming research. It was
launched following the limited research funding of the 7th EU Research
Framework Programme (2007 to 2013). This limited funding raised the
concern that the potential benefits of organic production would not be
used, even if in the European Organic Action Plan 2004, organic research
had been on the political agenda as one of the explicitly mentioned actions
(TP Organics, 2010)12. Thus, in 2007, a group of scientists from different
EU countries started a coalition of partners from several organisations of
the organic sector (including industry and civil society) to join their efforts
in defining organic research priorities and defending them vis-à-vis the
policy-makers. The result was the publication of a Vision for an Organic
Food and Farming Research Agenda 2025, coupled with the establishment
of TP Organics in 2008. Afterwards, a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA)
was published in 2009 with concrete research priorities that have to some
extent inspired FP7 and CORE Organic II calls. In 2010 TP Organics also
finalised its Implementation Action Plan which, completing its trilogy of
key documents, indicates how to approach, carry out and follow up the
research proposed for the best possible effect and outlines how organic
sector research can contribute to Europe’s progress during the period of
EU FP8.
At Mediterranean level, permanent transnational initiatives like the
Mediterranean Organic Agriculture Network (MOAN) and the International
Federation of Organic Agriculture Movement AgriBioMediterraneo
(IFOAM-ABM) have been actively involved in Mediterranean organic
research matters since the late 1990’s.
MOAN13 was founded in 1999 and initially included representatives from
different Mediterranean research institutions. After its reorganisation in
2006, it became an institutional network currently gathering 21 EuroMediterranean countries represented by decision-makers from the
Ministries of Agriculture (MoA) dealing with organic agriculture issues.

MOAN essentially aims at: a) creating working partnerships; b) encouraging
exchange and cooperation between public and private stakeholders; c) popularising
organic agriculture’s rationale and impacts. The Network organises thematic annual
meetings in partner countries, country-specific workshops and international
conferences; supports the creation of national sub-networks; produces scientific
works and periodical reports on organic agriculture in the region; manages a
website with special sections on country profiles and events. The Network considers
research as a tool for furthering organic agriculture in the Mediterranean basin.
ABM14 has been an official regional IFOAM group since 1997, responsible for specific
Mediterranean organic agriculture issues among which research and development
with a dedicated working group.
Another Mediterranean initiative is the ARIMNet project (Coordination of
Agricultural Research in the Mediterranean)15 that includes but does not exclusively
deal with organic research issues. The project, developed in the framework of EU
ERA-NET initiative within FP7, started off in 2008. It aims at coordinating national
research activities and identifying agricultural common research programmes
among the countries of the Mediterranean area to fight fragmentation and exploit
synergies.
The creation and expansion of the organic sector in the Northern European
countries led to the development and implementation of research in organic
agriculture issues much earlier than in the Southern European and other
Mediterranean countries. Even if organic principles and philosophy are invariable,
the applications and needs of research largely vary from one geographical area to
another. In the Mediterranean, there is an increasingly perceived need for adapted
research in organic agriculture under the regional conditions. Few initiatives have
been taken so far to meet such requirements. Among these, it may be worth
mentioning two recent experts’ workshops organised, respectively, by the Spanish
Society for Organic Farming (SEAE), which currently hosts IFOAM-ABM Secretariat
and by Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari (MAIB), which coordinates the
MOAN. Such workshops represented valuable opportunities to identify and discuss
problem areas as well as research needs and priorities for the organic sector in
the Mediterranean region (Box 1 and Box 2). Interestingly, overlapping but also
complementary ideas emerged during the two workshops which paved the way
for future collaborative action in the field.

Box 1. SEAE Workshop on “Organic Research under Mediterranean
conditions”
On September 18th 2009 an expert workshop on “Organic Research under
Mediterranean conditions” took place within the XV Technical Symposium of
SEAE “Organic production in the Mediterranean Basin” held in Bunyola, Mallorca
(Spain), organized by SEAE and sponsored by the Balearic Government and the
Spanish Ministry of the Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs (MARM).
The workshop, attended by 30 participants from 15 countries, included experts’
presentations and a final brainstorming to list the potential areas of interest for
future applied research in the Mediterranean countries.
From the discussion many problems and hot issues arose:
• target research on organic farming has increased enormously in recent year
but is not yet massive and it is little known;
• sector participation in setting research priorities is essential and it is therefore
necessary to establish mechanisms that facilitate it;
• the participation of Mediterranean countries in EU research projects is still very
low, even for the EU-Med countries;
• agricultural research is quite fragmented between International Research Centre
and Institution, University and Field level research;
• often there is inadequate communication between these different levels,
particularly over research priorities;
• disciplinary boundaries often inhibit the adoption of a holistic approach,
required in organic farming;
• lack of long-term experiment on organic agriculture in Mediterranean countries.
According to participants, in order to determine research priorities for the
Mediterranean there is a need to:
• improve the funding for research in organic farming for Mediterranean context;
• increase the participation of Mediterranean Research Institutions in research
projects, especially in EU contexts;
• create coordination of networking and information exchange between
Mediterranean countries and in particular between the existing regional IFOAM
group (i.e. IFOAM UE, ISOFAR, etc.) and other institutes (i.e. CIHEAM-MAIB);
• introduce farmers’ perspective and experience in research program;
• increase the dissemination of research output through conferences and
publications;
• better understand who influences who, the role of research for policy on organic
farming;
• focus on the appropriate methodology; participatory research and agroecological
approach is a very appropriate methodology to promote organic farming but is
rarely practiced today. Direct, Indirect and AgroEcoSystems methodology can
answer different and specific questions;
• increase support that is vital to enhance the sustainability of Mediterranean
farming systems and pastures;
• know what kind of organic farming and which organic farmers we want in the
future in order to understand which are the main research priorities and topics
we need.

conditions” (continued)
Finally, some research topics were also preliminary indicated:
• the use of the functional biodiversity: we need a huge amount of basic and
applied research to understand the Mediterranean specificities;
• the resilience capacity of Mediterranean organic farming for climate mitigation,
drought resistance;
• the use of local and resistant varieties;
• the farm autonomy, closely linked to the interaction between crops and
husbandry, especially in the Mediterranean where organic matter is scarce;
• safety and high quality organic typical food: organic arable crops, animal
husbandry, olive and viticulture, organic citrus and fruit;
• local markets;
• multi-functionality;
• traditional knowledge.

The pivotal importance of research to enhance organic farming’s abilities
to develop local potential and offer viable solutions to context-specific
needs is evident looking at the evolutionary trends of organic agriculture
worldwide. As discussed above, a number of initiatives have recently
contributed to help such a debate emerging also in the Mediterranean
region.
Clearly, in order to design, justify and support adequate research
programmes and activities in organic agriculture at the Mediterranean
level, a detailed and comprehensive knowledge of the current stateof-the-art of research in organic agriculture appears to be a crucial,
preliminary step to take.
Therefore, precisely to meet such a fundamental need and building
on previous work in the same field by Al-Bitar (2002 and 2004)16, a
questionnaire-based survey was carried out in 2009-10 in the framework
of InterBio project with the two main objectives:

Box 2. MAIB Workshop on “Cooperation and Research in Organic
Agriculture in the Mediterranean”
On October 15th 2009 an expert workshop took place at MAIB in the framework
of InterBIO Project “Promotion of domestic and international demand for organic
products”, financed by the Italian Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry
Policies (MiPAAF) and coordinated by MAIB.
The workshop was attended by 38 participants from 7 countries and included
plenary sessions and experts’ brainstorming to discuss problem areas and needs
of organic agriculture in the Mediterranean as well as main research priorities.
Participants’ opinions and suggestions were elicited by using the metaplan
method. The following problems, areas of interest and needs were identified and
debated:
• Policy and governance: lack of ability to foresee challenges; lack of support/
contradictory policies; bad/poor EU policy; lack of harmonisation; lack of a
Mediterranean platform; poor organisation of small farmers; lack of organic
agriculture plan; lack of capacity at community level;
• Research: lack of animal husbandry research; lack of dialogue between
research and policy; insufficient research; poor identification of problems;
lack of coordination and risk to waste money; unstructured exchange among
researchers; not rational funding initiatives; lack of funds; limited number
of researchers able to carry out research on organic issues with a truly
innovative approach;
• Institutional building: lack of SME in rural areas; fragmentation of organic
organisations; lack of cooperation between farmers and other stakeholders;
low representation and organisation of organic sector; lack of multilevel
dialogue; too many representatives of stakeholders; disorganization of the
sector; sustainability for international cooperation to support SEM countries;
• Training, information and education: poor farmers training; lack of advisory
services; poor dissemination of research results; low level of formal
education especially for women whose role in agriculture is increasing;
• Quality and local food: undefined quality of organic food; food quality,
unexplained benefits of organic food on health; organics and local food;
organic systems and terroir; lack of definition of organic quality; poor
definition of quality indicator for organic food;
• Soil fertility: poor management of soil fertility; arid soils; scarcity of organic
matter; relationship between soil fertility and quality; recycling of organic
matter; reducing nutrient loss; preserve soil fertility; long-term experiment
for soil fertility; anaerobic digestion;
• Inputs and agronomic practices: lack of organic inputs; lack of legislation on
botanical agents; lack of knowledge on plant protection; lack of input for
organic agriculture; lack of materials for plant protection; organic nursery
production; improvement of local varieties and breeds; weed control by
agronomic practices; collection of local species to be usedin plant protection;
need to improve the cultivation of local crops;
• Environment and natural resources: arid conditions; water shortage and
climate change; carbon trading; reduction of plastic waste; sustainable
management of agricultural resources;
(to be continued)
page 10
Box 2. MAIB Workshop on “Cooperation and Research in Organic
Agriculture in the Mediterranean” (continued)
• Markets: lack or limited existence of domestic markets in the Southern shore; bad
marketing; lack of promotion of domestic market, lack of market information;
consumers ignorance/lack of consumers awareness; poor local distribution;
prevalence of export-oriented approach in SEMountries; few organic products
exported from the South to the North; international trade issues for organic
products;
• Lack of social impact studies of large-cale conversion;
• Low level of environmental and socio-conomic sustainability of many
Mediterranean organic farms;
• New fields: Organic wine production, organic aquaculture;
• Protected agriculture and horticulture.
A second round of consultation was focused on research priorities for organic agrofood chains in the Mediterranean and the following research areas and topics were
expressed and discussed:
• Marketing: marketing initiatives; marketing systems; marketing constrains; local
marketing; people information; consumers behaviour; consumers motivation
and behaviour; development of national markets; promotion of organic
agriculture in the society;
• Socio-economic aspects: socio-economic sustainability; social impact on rural
areas; diversification and organic agriculture; farmers’ organisation; organic
agriculture and rural exodus;
• Inputs, compost, nurseries: propagation material; organic nursery; recycling of
organic waste; compost and pest control; plastic material substitution;
• Food quality and local Mediterranean foods: food quality; local typical products;
diversification of organic products on local biodiversity, biodiversity; organic
breeding for high quality local food; processing technologies with focus on
traditional processing methods; production quality for sustainable management;
• Soil fertility: soil fertility and quality based on farm-resources; soil fertility
management;
• Animal productions: cost-saving husbandry, certification of rangeland livestock
systems following wild collection model;
• Participatory certification system;
• Appropriate research and extension approach; the need for a system, transdisciplinary and holistic approach (in socio-economic and agro-ecological issues)
• Protected organic horticulture;
• Environmental impact assessment methods specific for organic farming;
• Fruit orchards.

1. to provide an updated overview of organisational features and strategic
orientations of organic research activities in Mediterranean countries;
2. to map research institutions working on organic agriculture across the
Mediterranean, enhancing their visibility and paving the way for future
exchange and collaborative work at the regional as well as the international
level.
The present document illustrates the findings of the survey into two main
sections. In Section I, after the background description and some preliminary
methodological considerations, the outputs are presented following the
questionnaire structure. In Section II, essentially organised as a directory,
contact details and basic information on key research projects and activities
in the past five years are provided, per country, for single research institutions
that have answered to the questionnaire.
2 Survey Design, Questionnaire and Data Collection
The tool used to carry out the survey is a questionnaire designed in June
-July 2009 through the joint efforts of MOAN Steering and Coordination
Committees.
The questionnaire is divided into two parts.
Part A includes six questions regarding the overall situation of the national
organisation and policies for organic research. This part was mainly addressed
to a decision-maker, preferably from the MoA, with a broad knowledge of the
country’s organic sector.
Part B includes ten questions addressed to single research institutions
involved in organic research in each country and mainly investigating their
organisational features, research capacity and facilities, research projects and
activities in the past five years, partnership and networking aspects as well as
main thematic areas of interest and work.
The questionnaire was circulated via e-mail in September 2009 by MAIB and
IFOAM-ABM to their networks of contacts across the Mediterranean.
MAIB handed out the questionnaire to MOAN country representatives that
were asked to fill part A since they are, in most cases, national decisionmakers on organic issues within the MoA and have a global view of the
organic situation. MOAN delegates subsequently handed out part B of the
page 12
questionnaire to public and private institutions dealing with organic research
in their country. In three cases the MOAN delegate was not able to contact
the research institutions of the country, therefore, MAIB managed directly
the administration of part B of the questionnaire.
IFOAM-ABM actively circulated the questionnaire (part A and B) to all
its members in the Mediterranean and received in total eight responses
(from Croatia, Egypt, Greece, France, Israel, Lebanon, Palestine and Spain).
Unfortunately, not all the gathered information could be used in the analysis
because of some inconsistencies and/or incomplete parts in the collected
questionnaires.
In Italy the survey was carried out in close cooperation with SINAB (Sistema
d’Informazione Nazionale sull’Agricoltura Biologica), the Italian Information
System on Organic Farming17. For its involvement in the census of Italian
organic research activities and institutions over the past years SINAB has
developed a dense network of relations with relevant national and regional
actors which facilitated the circulation of the questionnaire.
The number of research institutions to which part B of the questionnaire was
addressed is extremely variable across countries. In each country this part
of the questionnaire was circulated to a list of relevant research institutions
preliminary drafted on the basis of previous research work (Al-Bitar, 2002 and
2004) as well as of additional available information. Subsequently, this list
was cross-checked, and updated when needed, in collaboration with MOAN
representatives and country experts that, in most cases, had compiled part
A of the questionnaire. For some countries (BiH, Croatia, Greece and Jordan)
such country lists could not be produced or updated.
3 Survey Findings
3.1 Part A findings – Organic research in the Mediterranean from the point of view of decision-makers and country
experts
3.1.1 Response rate and geographical coverage
Overall the survey covered 23 Euro-Mediterranean countries. Responses

page 13
for Part A of the questionnaire were gathered from the 21 MOAN country
representatives18 and, through ABM, from Greece and Israel.
The results are presented and analysed according to three geographical
areas as follows:
−European Union (EU) countries: France, Greece, Italy, Slovenia
and Spain;
−Candidates and potential candidates (CPC) countries: Albania,
Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina (with its two entities, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) and Republika Srpska), Former
Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), Montenegro, Serbia
and Turkey;
−South and East Mediterranean (SEM) countries: Algeria, Egypt,
Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria and
Tunisia.
3.1.2 National frameworks for organic research in the Mediterranean
The analysis reveals that national frameworks for organic research may
include a specific action plan for organic research which can be combined
or not with a dedicated central office coordinating organic research.
Alternatively, more simply, specific reference to organic research can be
found in the national action plan for the organic sector.
All EU Mediterranean countries covered by this survey have an action plan
for organic agriculture. Only France has a specific action plan for organic
research and a dedicated national central office that coordinates it. In
Slovenia and Spain there is no specific action plan for organic research, but
the need for research in the organic sector is mentioned in their national
action plan for organic agriculture. The Slovenian National Action Plan for
organic agriculture defines specific goals to be reached through research
and the Spanish National Action Plan includes an ad hoc action that aims
at promoting organic research works and their findings.
In most EU Mediterranean countries criteria for defining organic research
topics are not clear and, according to many interviewees, the choice of
18
MOAN member countries are: Albania, Algeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Egypt,
France, Italy, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, F.Y. Rep. of Macedonia, Malta, Montenegro, Morocco,
Palestinian Authority, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey. Membership of Cyprus,
Greece and Portugal has not yet been finalized.
page 14
thematic areas and topics is, in fact, largely influenced by the priorities and
interests of the institutions carrying out or financing the research work.
In CPC countries, only Turkey has a national action plan for organic research
with a dedicated central body that coordinates research activities, while
Serbia and BiH (Bosnia and Herzegovina) only have a draft document that is
not yet implemented. In Albania organic research is considered as the main
axis of agricultural research activities that the Ministry of Agriculture, Food
and Consumer Protection included both in the strategy for the development
of agriculture and in the action plan for organic agriculture development.
Tunisia is the only country in SEM that drafted an action plan for research in
organic agriculture. Nevertheless, it is not the only country in this area with
a dedicated office for coordinating and orienting organic research activities.
Indeed, Egypt, Israel and Syria have a central body directly dependent from
the Ministry of Agriculture that manages the organic research activities and
selects themes to be investigated.
As to the identification of research priorities, also in CPC and SEM countries
a significant influence of single research institutions’ and individual
researchers’ preferences and concerns has been reported, especially in
those contexts where no national priorities are defined in official documents
and/or no coordinating central office has been established.
Funding is another fundamental component of national frameworks for
organic research.
National funds supporting the organic sector are available in all surveyed
EU countries except in Greece. In CPC countries, national funds allocated
specifically for research in organic agriculture are available in Albania,
Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. In SEM countries organic research is
nationally funded in Egypt, Israel and Tunisia.
In some countries national funds are also complemented by regional
channels.
In many Mediterranean countries international funding - including EU research
funding as well as international donors’ and private sector’s funding – also plays
a significant role in supporting organic research. In EU and CPC areas, this is
the case of France, Slovenia, Albania, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. Among
SEM countries it is worth mentioning the example of Morocco and Lebanon,
where public resources lack and funding from both international donors and
(international and national) private sector prevails not only in supporting
organic research but also the development of the organic sector as a whole.
page 15
3.1.3 Priorities for organic research in the Mediterranean
Decision-makers and country experts were also asked to express their
opinion about the main research priorities for organic research in the
Mediterranean. Diverse thematic areas were identified. In the following
list they are grouped and presented per geographical sub-division:
i) In EU Mediterranean countries:
−
−
−
−
Plant and animal genetic resources
Cropping systems
Market study and promotion
Improving knowledge and technologies
ii) In CPC countries:
−
−
−
−
Pest management/Plant protection
Soil fertility management
Agroecology and biodiversity
Market study and promotion
iii) In SEM countries:
−
−
−
−
Plant protection/Biological control
Soil fertility management
Post harvest and food processing
Quality control and inspection system
Clearly and expectedly, the thematic areas listed by respondents to part A
of the questionnaire match to a large extent with those identified, more
in detail, by participants to the two workshops held in Spain and in Italy
in 2009 (Box 1 and 2).
3.2 Part B findings – Institutions, resources and topics of organic research in the Mediterranean
Like findings of Part A, Part B results, too, are illustrated according to the
three geographical subdivisions considered for the Mediterranean area:
EU Mediterranean, CPC and SEM countries.
page 16
3.2.1 Response rate and geographical coverage
The number of research institutions working on organic agriculture topics
is very diverse across Mediterranean countries and it is affected by many
factors, among which: the structure and organisation of agricultural research
and, of course, the stage of development of the sector.
Overall, 93 institutions, out of a total of 174 institutions contacted across
the Mediterranean, responded to part B of the questionnaire: 34 from EU
Mediterranean countries, 31 from CPC countries and 28 from SEM countries.
Figure 1 shows the response rate, expressed in percentage, per geographical
subdivision. The highest response rate was registered in CPC (83%),
followed by SEM (64%) and EU Mediterranean countries (50%). To better
understand such results it is worth noticing that in some countries, the
survey could cover 100% of the institutions, like in FYROM, Montenegro,
Morocco and Syria, because of the limited number of institutions dealing
with organic research as well as of MOAN delegates’ and country expert’s
commitment to contribute to the survey. In EU Mediterranean countries,

It is interesting to look more in detail at the type of research institutions
dealing with organic agriculture across the Mediterranean.
Table 1 shows the responses received per type of research institution and
Figure 2 illustrates the share (%) of responses per type of institution in
the three geographical subdivisions. The highest number of responses
page 17
was received from the different agricultural research institutes connected
to MoAs, perhaps as a result also of the direct contact with MOAN
representatives charged to circulate Part B of the questionnaire.

The number of questionnaires sent back by universities was also interesting.
It was highest in SEM countries (43%), where most of the organic research
activities are carried out almost exclusively the university professors.
Responses from the private sector (associations and NGOs), instead, were
quite scarce since private research operators often operate independently from
the MoA and, in many cases, appeared to be quite disconnected from public
research structures and from MOAN delegates too. This is particularly evident
in many CPC and SEM countries.
The “other public institutions” category mainly included regional agencies and
public research and technical institutions that are not considered as agricultural
research institutions of the MoA but are either affiliated to it (like in Tunisia) or
linked to other ministries such as the Ministry of Education (like in Algeria).

3.2.2 Relevance of organic research within the activities of surveyed
institutions
For many of the surveyed institutions, research on organic agriculture
represents but one of many other activities. Also, in many cases,
organic agriculture is not an exclusive area of research work. Part B of
the questionnaire included a section to investigate such issues and get a
better understanding of the weight of organic research activities.
Overall, the survey findings underlined that research in organic is still a
small niche within the total institutional and research activities in the
Mediterranean region.
More in particular, in EU Mediterranean countries, only in 22% of surveyed
institutions, organic research activities stand for more than half of the
total institutional activities; in 62% they represent less than 25% of the
total institutional activities (Figure 3.a).
In terms of weight on total research activities, research in organic
agriculture exceeds half of the total research activities in only 34% of
surveyed institutions. In 46% of cases the share of organic research does
not reach the quarter of the total research activities (Figure 3.b). This
points out that the institutions and centres specialised in organic research
are still lacking in EU Mediterranean compared to the central and northern
EU countries such as Germany, Switzerland and The Netherlands, where
important organic research centres and departments are established.

In SEM countries the weight of organic research on total institutional
activities is slightly more encouraging than in CPC countries. In 21% of
cases its share exceeds 50% of the total activities (Figure 5.a), mainly due
to the existence of public institutions specialised in organic research and
training like in Egypt and Tunisia.

3.2.3 Main research topics
Figures 6, 7 and 8 show the most investigated research topics by surveyed
institutions. In all geographical subdivisions, agronomic practices are always
included in the top ten topics. Market and policy issues have been mentioned
only in EU Mediterranean and CPC countries. Not many studies, instead,
seem to be carried out on landscape design, hedges, quality/inspection
systems, organic human nutrition, animal health and welfare, medicinal and
aromatic plants, viticulture, biodynamic agriculture, rural sociology, territory
and environment, which do not appear in any of the top ten lists.

3.2.4 Human resources
The survey revealed that in the EU Mediterranean countries more than
half of the persons working on organic research are university graduates
(60%) and those with post-graduate qualifications represent 22% and
18% respectively (Figure 9).
In CPC and SEM countries the situation is more balanced between the
different degrees considered. The qualifications of human resources
involved in research in organic agriculture are more or less equally
distributed between university graduates (27% and 34%), Master degrees
(34% and 32%) and PhD degrees (38% and 34%).

One of the reasons behind this difference in human resource qualifications
could be the educational situation in CPC and SEM countries where
students often seek for high educational degrees, frequently acquired in
EU or North American countries, before coming back to their country of
origin and invest in research.
3.2.5 Facilities
Experimental farms, laboratories and experimental plots are the most
widespread facilities used at surveyed institutions to conduct research in
organic agriculture (Figure 10).
Laboratories appear to prevail in EU Mediterranean countries while in
CPC and SEM countries experimental farms are more important.
page 22
However, the experimental farms used to carry out research in organic
agriculture are not always certified as organic, especially in CPC and SEM
countries.
It is noteworthy to mention that “other infrastructure” refers mainly to
private farms certified as organic and used by the institutions for research
purposes. Private farms (like experimental ones) are generally used to
assess and test research results under real farm conditions.

3.2.6 Funding
Concerning funding for organic research, representatives of surveyed
institutions essentially confirmed what decision-makers and country
experts stated in compiling part A of the questionnaire. In all geographical
subdivisions, most of the financial support for the research in organic
comes from national funds, followed by the international ones. Regional
and local funds appear to contribute in a considerable way only in EU
Mediterranean countries, they do not count much in CPC and SEM
countries instead (Figure 11).

3.2.7 Transfer and dissemination
Across the Mediterranean the transfer and dissemination of organic
research results is carried out by means of two main tools: publications
and training courses (Figure 12).
Internet websites appear to be an important tool for results sharing and
diffusion in EU but not in CPC and SEM countries, where more probably
farmers and other actors of the agricultural sector still do not have an
easy access to the computer technology.
Specific projects on extension are frequently used means for the
dissemination of research results in EU and CPC but not in SEM, where
other tools, such as conferences, leaflets, seminars, workshops and field
visits (grouped in the “others” category) are used by 50% of the surveyed
institutions.
The role of extension centres in the dissemination of organic research
results is to some extent marginal in EU (12%) and CPC (20%). In SEM,
it appears to be slightly more important (36%), which could be strictly
related to the importance of extension services especially in the remote
regions and areas.

Conclusions
Building on previous research work, the present survey tried to shed light
on organic research actors, structures and topics in the Mediterranean.
Clearly, not all relevant aspects could be sufficiently analysed and a
number of issues need further investigation as well as regular updating,
for which, hopefully there will be new opportunities in the near future.
The results of this study revealed several weaknesses of research in
organic across the Mediterranean, as well as strengths that deserve
consideration. Besides, there are a number of external factors that play a
key role in determining the various opportunities and threats that organic
research has to deal with in order to improve its conditions and fill the
existing gaps within its organization and functioning.
The main strengths identified are:

the high qualification of human resources involved in research in
organic issues especially in CPC and SEM countries;

the existing infrastructures (laboratories and experimental farms)
available for research in organic agriculture;

an adequate transfer of the research results mainly through
publications and training courses.
page 25
Among the weaknesses that seem to hamper the development of
research in organic in the Mediterranean area it is important to consider:
the absence of a specific action plan or national strategy explicitly
dedicated to organic research in most Mediterranean countries;

the absence, except for a few countries (Egypt, France, Israel, Syria
and Tunisia) of a central body or unit coordinating organic research
activities, identifying problems and criteria for specifying topics to
be investigated;

the research in organic still being a small niche within the
institutional and total research activities carried out by institutions
and the still significant reliance of organic research on individual
researchers’ commitment;

the small number of centres fully specialised in organic research.
Some opportunities could be seized to boost the development of
organic research in the Mediterranean. Among those:

the worldwide growing interest in organic agriculture as a tool
for developing sustainable agriculture;

the recent inclusion of Mediterranean diet in the list of the
UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity which could
boost research in the Mediterranean organic food;

the awareness of EU researchers of the need to cooperate and
coordinate research with CPC and SEM countries to further develop
and organise the organic sector at the Mediterranean level.
Future progress in organic research in the Mediterranean will
inevitably face many threats. The survey findings particularly shed
light on:

the still relatively unclear and incomplete picture of research needs
and priorities concerning Mediterranean organic agriculture,
which could contribute to perpetuate a situation of fragmentation
and dominance of single institutions and individual researchers’
interests.
page 26
The survey not only contributed to reveal the above discussed issues but
it also suggested some ideas for further work to support organic research
in the Mediterranean. More in particular, it would be useful to:
- continue monitoring the evolutionary trends of organic research
in the Mediterranean in order to base future support initiatives
on a comprehensive and updated picture of the situation;
- identify the practical problems of the sector and try to find out
how research may contribute to their solution;
- participate to regional Mediterranean and international projects
trying to convey and consolidate common interests;
- establish relations and partnership and develop networking at
Mediterranean and international level for a better exchange of
information and sharing of experience.
