RT null T1 Deddens Agro: The organic transition is a living choice A1 United Nations Environment Programme, K1 green economy K1 organic farming K1 agricultural trade K1 promotion of trade and industry YR 2017 FD 2017-09 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/22931 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/22931 NO Deddens Agro is a Ukrainian-German company that has quickly responded to the increasing consumer demand for organic produce. The company started in 2008 with conventional agriculture and made the switch to organic in 2014, dedicating 2’600 hectares out of their 3’500-hectare farm to organic produce. Soy makes up 40% of Deddens Agro’s organic crops, with wheat the second most-planted crop. The company also produces organic flax, sunflower, and buckwheat. Their choice of crops is driven by demand and restrictions in proper crop rotation to ensure a good yield. DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 23, 2026
