Summary

For assessing the development potential of organic farming in Germany on the one hand information is needed, how the demand for organic products in the future will develop. On the other hand information is needed, if farmers are willing to farm organically and which factors are influencing farmer’s decisions to convert to organic farming. The paper is based on results of 228 face to face interviews with conventional farmers, which have been carried out in the year 2003. Significant correlations between factors that influence conversion related decision-making have been identified, both with particular regional as well as general significance.
