• The organic food production costs are higher in the developed countries as organic farming is labour intensive and labour is costly in these countries.
• However, in country like India, where labour is abundant and is relatively cheap, organic farming is seen as a good cost effective solution to the increasing costs involved in chemical farming.
• Currently most of the organic farmers in India are still in the transition phase and hence their costs are still high.
• As these farmers continue with organic farming, the production costs are expected to reduce, making India as one of the most important producers of organic food.
