The majority of people living in big cities and estranged from nature have no idea where the food they eat comes from, how it is produced and what it consists of. Those who do not pay attention to this, probably buy food produced in farming on large scale and monoculture, where dozens of chemicals are used for their production and also often come from other continents. The agriculture of our days uses a huge scale of plant protecting agents, insecticides, weed killers, fungicides, fertilizers in order to increase crop results. These facts have harmful impact on living systems in the whole world: soil, water, air have been contaminated, the pollinating ability of bees has got in danger. At last it has to be mentioned that the unlimited use of chemicals means serious health risks (the international food scandals of the past years can only be described as the peak of the iceberg).
Realizing the above mentioned problems more and more people turn to bio (ecological, organic) food produced within secure circumstances without the use of chemicals. They tend to choose the bio-products of the familiar local farmers instead of the foods
of the supermarkets with unknown origin
