Overview: Many advocates for organic agriculture claim that international harmonization of certification programs is needed in order to advance the organic industry from its present state. They maintain that harmonization will enable greater gains from trade and will create a truly global organic industry. In order to verify the merit of these harmonization claims, some understanding of organic agriculture and the current state of certification systems around the world is necessary. This paper will provide background information on the need for certification and will summarize both government and international certification programs around the world.
