Organic products are preferred because of their contribution to human health and the environment, and are seen by conscious consumers as a great market potential. In the formation of this potential, the diversity of organic products, the standard and the design of the products, together with consumers’ demands, the benefits they expect from the product and the purchasing behavior, come to the forefront. The design of organic products depends on what needs consumers can meet. This is different in every market. This study discussed the problems encountered in organic production and the ways of development. In this context, it has been taken advantage of written sources, statistical data and the results of the survey conducted by researchers. The study found that the accepted certification processes, which are the main source of organic production and the discontinuation, contained high costs, which prevented the direct delivery of organic products abroad or abroad. On the other hand, the commitment to traditional methods, the lack of the number of certified seeds, the lack of control and control, the lack of reliable database, the low level of education, the problem of residues, the lack of organization of producers, the marketing problems, the lack of the number of certified seeds, the high costs of entry and the lack of promotion appear as the structural problems of the domestic market. To overcome these structural problems, it is necessary to educate and awareness farmers about the environment and health, to develop organic agriculture activities in accordance with domestic and external demand, to prefer high added value products, to reduce VAT in organic products, to improve food security, to reduce organic agriculture certificate fees, to develop control and supervision services.
