A reflection on the statistics 64 The World of Organic Agriculture 2006 Even though it is great that the 2006 edition of organic world statistics includes information on grape production, it has to be stated that the data presented (more than 90’000 hectares) are not a reflection of the actual area with organic grapes. It has not been possible to get data from some important wine growing countries like Australia. In the US, organic vineyards do not only exist in California, although this figure covers the major area in the US. It also needs to be clarified that the grape area is not always for wine production. Especially the grape areas in China, Turkey, Greece, but also in California are not solely vineyards. They also cover substantial grape production for table grapes, raisins, sultanas etc. Considering the fact that we have “mega” viticulture countries like Italy, France and Spain, it is not a surprise that these countries are also leaders when it come s to organic viticulture. These three countries cover far more than half of the worldwide organic viticulture area. The fact that Italy is not only leading the statistic, but also covers almost twice as many hectares as the “runner up” France, mirrors the fact that Italy also leads the total organic area statistics in Europe. We cannot (yet) present numbers on organic grape growers and farms, but in the case of Italy, there are are in the range of a couple of thousand viticulturists. Considering the fact that grape and wine producing farms are fairly small in terms of hectare size in most countries, it is a safe estimate that on a global level a several ten thousand grape producers are growing organically. Reliable marketing and economic data were not obtainable, but a short reflection on these aspects is reasonable and possible. In some countries like Italy and France, the share of vineyards within the total organic area has reached levels of two to over three percent. This is still a small proportion, but considering the fact that making wine (and also raisins) is highly value adding, the economic importance of grape and wine production is way beyond the mere area share. This is also supported by the fact that organic wine has a high proportion of direct marketing, giving the producers a greater and fairer share of financial returns. Although Chile has proportionally few hectares in grapes, the share of organic wine in the export statistics of the country in the range of eight percent, which supports the conclusions above. Compiling this data is a start, and we hope that highlighting this sector inspires those with access to regional and national data information to contribute to a more extensive and comprehensive overview in next year’s edition.
