Abstract:
Agriculture in Europe is at a critical stage as it tries to balance its nutritional, economic
and environmental demands. One of the options for the future is ecological (organic)
agriculture, which emphasises sustainability, human health, biological conservation and
the quality of life. Ecological agriculture is a form of applied ecology with a series of
aims that need to be balanced within an agricultural context. These aims and principles
need to be understood, firstly, as biological processes, but with the recognition that they
are influenced by many factors that lie outside of biology such as economics, nutrition
and consumer preferences.

Key words: organic farming, ecological agriculture
