Abstract

This study aimed to determine the barriers to the development of organic farming in Kazakhstan; to define the priorities of a common Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) agricultural policy for pursuing mutual interests. Surveys of 40 experts indicated that a common agricultural policy in the EAEU would mean broader markets and lower the cost of organic production, and would help Kazakhstan to improve standing in global exports. The results showed that the primary barriers to organic farming were the costs and bureaucracy associated with certification, weak domestic demand, lack of government support in the organic market, etc.
