Labelling schemes for organic food: Consumer attitudes, preferences and willingness-to-pay in six European countries
(2011-12-12)
Since July 2010, all pre-packed organic food produced in the European Union (EU) must carry the new mandatory EU logo for organic food. Voluntary organic labels (such as national governmental logos and logos of private farmers’ associations and control bodies) can still be used, but only in addition to the mandatory EU logo. This change in the regulatory environment of organic labelling raises a number of questions regarding consumer preferences for different kinds of organic certification logos, which the present ...

German consumers' attitudes and preferences with regard to organic food and food from different origins
(2016-06-23)
In dieser Studie geht es darum, ein umfassendes Bild bezüglich der Konsumenteneinstellungen, Präferenzen und Zahlungsbereitschaften für ökologisch produzierte Lebensmittel und Lebensmittel verschiedener Herkünfte in Deutschland zu erhalten. Obwohl die regionale Herkunft von Lebensmitteln nicht offiziell und einheitlich geregelt ist und keiner Zertifizierung unterliegt wie die ökologische Produktion von Lebensmitteln, zeigen nationale und internationale Studien gleichermaßen, dass Konsumenten bereit sind, mehr für ...

Attitudes and behaviour towards food attributes and organic food – a triangular methodological investigation of occasional organic consumers
(2012-01-04)
Organic food is increasingly available in the conventional food retail, where organic products are offered alongside with various other types of products and compete mainly with conventional and the so-called conventional-plus products. The latter are conventional products displaying particular quality attributes on the product packaging, such as ‘no artificial additives’, or ‘from animal welfare husbandry’. Often, these quality attributes also apply to organic products. Occasional organic consumers might prefer such ...

Organic consumers' attitudes and preferences regarding alternatives to piglet castration without anaesthesia and analgesia in organic farming - an explorative analysis
(2013-11-05)
In Germany and other European countries piglets are routinely castrated in order to avoid the occurrence of boar taint, an off-flavour and off-odour of pork. Sensory perception of boar taint varies; however, it is regarded as very unpleasant by many people. Surgical castration which is an effective means against boar taint has commonly been performed without anaesthesia or analgesia within the piglets’ first seven days of life. Piglet castration without anaesthesia has been heavily criticised, as the assumption that ...

Analysis of the Market Potential of Syrian Organic Fruit and Vegetables for Exports to Germany
(2016-10-19)
Syria has been a major producer and exporter of fresh fruit and vegetables (FFV) in the Arabic region. Prior to 2011, Syrian FFV were mainly exported to the neighbouring countries, the Gulf States and Northern Africa as well as to Eastern European countries. Although the EU is potentially one of the most profitable markets of high quality FFV (such as organic ones) in the world, Syrian exports of FFV to Western European countries like Germany have been small. It could be a lucrative opportunity for Syrian growers and ...

Factors influencing the purchase behaviour of consumers for organic wine: An analysis of household panel data
(2018-07-19)
Consumer studies based on surveys and purchase experiments show positive attitudes towards organic wine in large consumer segments. However, the market share of organic wine is still small. Apparently, there is a gap between consumer attitudes and real purchase behaviour but no study so far analysed this attitude-behaviour relation in a real market context. Therefore, the present dissertation is based on real market data – household panel data of the GfK (Gesellschaft für Konsumforschung).
The study revealed low ...

Potentials and limits of sustainability communication - The cases of climate-friendly food and farmed fish
(2018-02-15)
The present thesis focuses on the potentials and limits of sustainability communication via media, labels and claims to foster the consumption of climate-friendly food and sustainably farmed fish. A mixed methods approach combining an online survey containing choice experiments with qualitative face-to-face interviews was applied to explore consumers’ perceptions of climate-friendly food as well as the limits and merits of a carbon footprint label for fostering climate-friendly consumption. The qualitative approach ...
