Description

The Global Organic Food Market was valued at USD 154.3 Billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9% to reach USD 364.4 Billion by 2034.

Growing environmental consciousness and changing consumer habits are strongly influencing the demand for organic and sustainably sourced food. Awareness about soil health degradation, climate change, and carbon emissions is leading people to prefer organic farming practices that promote biodiversity, conserve water, and minimize pollution. This transition is motivating farmers to adopt sustainable agricultural methods while fueling consistent market expansion. Government policies and certification frameworks have further accelerated this trend by ensuring product authenticity and building consumer confidence. Nearly half of the industry's growth is driven by public programs and certifications that support environmentally friendly production. The blending of plant-based and vegan trends with organic offerings is expanding the consumer base for beverages, functional foods, and protein-rich products, redefining how the modern health-conscious population consumes organic foods.
