Hi Subhash,

I don't know any specific methodological bibliography related to economics of organic farming. What you usually have are "organic protocols" to follow when at the different stages of the value chain. The USDA has specific definitions for organic and natural farming, and there are agencies that control the following of these protocols. Europe has too explicit legislation to follow. The AMS, within the USDA may certify or verify a program, even if it's developed overseas. The USDA verifies the Certified Angus and Hereford Beef programs in Argentina, through common protocols developed in common with Sanitary Agencies in Argentina.

Papers I have read about organic beef or milk, they just estimate costs, revenues and differential prices, so they can estimate the profit against regular farming practices. A cost benefit analysis for each option, should suffice to assess profitability . In these cases, the certification is done by International or National certifying agencies. These papers are in Spanish, if you're interested I could look for them.

Let me know whether I could be of further help.

Rgds.,

Can some one suggest me literature on methodological issues related economics of organic farming?

in perspective if Research Methodology there is a specific methodology used for organic farming economic. Depend upon your experimental work in agriculture and time bound system and crop etc.

if you want detail plz sent full detail in which specific system you required in crop pattern, in trading pattern or in envrionmental pattern.

Dear sir 

I have complete integrated organic farming system where in crop, livestock, fish are being taken all together. I need to look in to economic aspects, sustainabilty of system and environment also. so please give the methods and techniques which can be utilized,

Dear @Subhash, I will attach some books about the issue! Good luck!

regarding your concept you just inlcude the main and allied activities of agriculutre one side you want to studied on crop and second side you just teel about livestock, fish etc. all three combination would you like to do parlel study or you want to do comparetive study after getting proper aspect you can chose the proper techniques.

you can refer to the website of International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), which works in environment friendly activity. they have lot of materials and methods, which may help you.

Dear Subhash

There are many good cost studies available online from the University of California (Davis) that provide economic information for both organic and conventional production of various California crops.  Check out the web links below.  take care, Eric
