“…Research has also addressed the potential of organic farming to contribute to endogenous rural development, through fostering direct producer-consumer relationships (e.g., Moore, 2008;Renting et al, 2008;DuPuis and Gillon, 2009) or through service provision (e.g., Darnhofer, 2005;Schermer, 2006;Frederiksen and Langer, 2008;Lobley et al, 2009).
