Both organic farming and organic food market have grown slowly but steadily in recent decades. Thus, if initially they were only subject to scientific debate, later turned into: market niches; important areas of legal regulation; topics of debate among consumers; important links in food chains at national, European or global level. The paper proposes an analysis of significant recent developments in organic farming and organic food markets, analysis results will be used in shaping the development perspectives of the two important components of agricultural and food markets. Research methods used were mainly quantitative, analysis and comparison occupying an important place in the whole work. Comparisons were made both in terms of temporal and geographically. Were analyzed statistics in recent years.
