While the annual growth of international organic market in the world stays around 10% a year, in Brazil it is expected for 2006 between 25% and 30% in the food and beverages sectors. Supermarkets, home delivery and street fairs are among the main markets in cities like São Paulo, Rio and Curitiba. Organic agriculture in Latin America has been growing, specially in the export with products such as coffee, bananas, sugar and soya beans. With 90 million hectares of area available for agriculture, Brazil is indicated as one of the greatest potential growers in the world, with the expectation that a good part of this land is used for organic farming.
