A report of ecological production in
Spain 2017 published by the Ministry
of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food,
shows that in the period 2010-
2017, the number of producers that
undertook organic farming increased
by 60%, from 1,886 in 2010 to 3,013
in 2017.
This percentage is very similar to the
national average.
The ecological production system in
the Mediterranean Arc ( Andalusia,
Catalonia, Murcia and the Valencian
Community) represents 65% of the
total national ecological area and
58% of the producers throughout the
country.
