One of the chapters is fully devoted to the conditions for labeling organic production and their position on the union market. The following chapters after present the legal framework of organic farming, the system of control responsible for the quality of organic production and the conditions for registration of organic entrepreneurs. As for the practical part, it is focused on the detailed analysis of preliminary ruling proceedings submitted to the CJEU.
