The twenty-first century is called ‘green’ century and it sees increasingly serious environmental and natural resources problems, and all countries concerned, particularly in Europe (Willer H., Kilcher, K., 2010), should take actions on the basis of sustainable development strategy, with priority given to food production. In connection with organic farming, sustainability must be understood as ‘functional integrity’, or the ability of a system to reproduce itself and thereby survive on a long-term scale(Alore, 2008).The global development of environmentally friendly agriculture as well as the practice and extension of alternative agriculture, or lower exterior input agriculture are the outcome of the search for the models of sustainable food production and consumption. The organic production also plays important role in the rural areas and the creation of value added products of agri-food chain.
