Discussed, in particular, the question of the adoption of the Federal law on organic agriculture. Experts are currently working on proposals for the Ministry of agriculture to create the conditions for sustainable development of such areas.

According to Ksenia Firsova, accredited according to international standards inspector, head of "Organic" Ecological Union of St. Petersburg, many producers are interested in the question of parallel proceedings (when a farm is partially transferred to the organic level), is this permissible and what special requirements apply in this case.

Chief editor of the magazine "Agrotaym" Olga Katushkina said that farmers were more likely to think about the fertility of the soil not only as a source of income today, but a resource that should be preserved for future generations.
