Organic agriculture consists of environmental and human friendly production systems in order to reestablish the natural balance which is lost as a result of inaccurate and excessive farming practices. In others words, instead of using synthetic chemical pesticides and fertilizers, organic agriculture promotes organic and green fertilization, crop rotation, soil conservation, increasing plant resistance as well as benefitting from parasites and predators. In addition, organic farming refers to improving not the amount of production but the quality of it. Due to the spread of diseases caused by pesticide and hormone residue on the products, people show great interest in organic agriculture so as to lead a healthier life. Total organic agricultural production in the world is 4.516.810 tons, while in Turkey it is 353.173 tons. As for Turkey’s organic agriculture, Usak province has little share in it despite its favourable climate and location. In this study, as a methodology, we analyzed the existing data on organic agriculture in Usak province and in Turkey as well as in the total production in all over the world. And then, we compared those statistics with each other, finding that Usak province, however great potential it has, hasn’t been able to reach the desired level in terms of organic agriculture. We focus on determining the potential of Usak province for organic agriculture. Furthermore, we aim to define the problems of organic agriculture and to find solutions to them in order to make organic agriculture more widespread and more practicable.
