Agriculture Minister Phil Gawne says he’s pleased with the progress being made to market the Island’s organic produce.
The Organic Working Group, which the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry set up last year, has unveiled initial details of its long-term plan for the industry.
It aims to expand the market in the Isle of Man as well as open up new markets for export.
Mr Gawne (pictured) says there’s already a significant number of people who buy organic produce:
