Summary in the original language of the document

The objective of this research was to gain insight into the legal framework for organic in the EU, and the consumer understanding and perception towards organic logos in Estonia. This thesis examines the Estonian consumer perception on organic logo and their motivation for buying organic food products; followed by analysis of the "average consumer" notion in the CJEU case law, finding that organic logo leads consumers to perceive food products with that logo as more "healthier" than conventional food products. The research findings indicate to the problem of consumers´ false perception of characteristics of organic logo and organic food, which in turn hampers making informed decisions.
