The authors have devised a system of approaches to the organic market development and factors influencing the development of organic production.

Despite the challenges of the wartime, the organic market is developing,its capacity is growing. The carried out analysis made it possible to identify the main benchmarks for a more dynamic development of organic production in Ukraine.
