For the health of man and Earth

AGROBIO – The Portuguese Association for Organic Agriculture, founded in 1985, is a pioneer institution, playing a determinant role in the dissemination of Organic Agriculture in Portugal.

It gathers people of all ages and professional backgrounds, who share concerns about food quality, health, environment and the defense of healthier agricultural practices.

AGROBIO is a member of IFOAM (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements), and a member of IFOAM-EU Regional Group. It has a recognised public utility status, and plays a threefold role as an association for agriculture, environment and consumer protection.

It currently develops activities in the following areas:

• Technical and commercial support to organic farmers,
• Training on Organic Agriculture and Environmental Education,
• Research and Development on Organic Agriculture,
• Social Farming and Reintegration,
• Organic urban kitchen gardens,
• Agrobio's street markets, in partnership with municipalities,
• Organisation of events for disseminating and promoting organic agriculture (Organic Agriculture National Exhibition – Terra Sã, conferences, seminars, Agrobio's day, and other events),
