Abstract: This article summarizes the European experience in supply chain management in the organic food sector. At the same time, the specifics of supply chain management in this sector consist not only in providing a short the shelf life of products, but also in maintaining consumer preferences for organic food. Based on the analysis of the Russian organic food market, as well as a survey of agricultural producers, recommendations for the sustainable development of this sector of the agro-industrial complex are given. In addition, as a result, of the survey, their readiness to produce organic products was identified and characterized. Sustainable development of organic agriculture should be formed on the basis of taking into account the features and preferences from both the demand side and the producer side. Therefore, tools of governmental and non-governmental organizations should be addressed not only to consumers, but also to potential producers of organic products, which are interested in passing organic certification.
