The drivers of the conversion in organic farming (OF): a review of the economic literature
Abstract
We reviewed the studies, mainly in economy, to identify the drivers of the farms‘ conversion in organic farming (OF). The scientific documents were selected by requesting the international bibliographic databases (Web Of Knowledge, Organic Eprint) to identify articles, and by crossing main articles quoted in the recent economic
literature in the field of the drivers of conversions. We have organised the review in two groups, one focused on motivations for conversion and values associated with the choices of OF, and the other on the observable drivers. This category of drivers was split in internal factors (linked to the farmer and the farm) and external factors (such as public policies, localization, etc).
