This paper analyses the supply and demand of organic grain crops in the U.S. It shows how consumer demand for organic food has grown rapidly, while domestic grain supplies have not kept up, leading to a reliance on imports. It explores the superior profitability of organic farming and the barriers holding farmers back from transitioning, which creates an opportunity for investors to partner with farmers to scale up organic production.
