Résumé
Reviews and meta-analyses generally support the perception that organic farming systems are more environmentally friendly than conventional farming systems. Organic agriculture results in more soil organic matter and higher microbiological activity, thus, providing better water holding capabilities, decreased both runoff and concentration of nitrate in soil, leading to fewer risks of nitrate leaching loss from the soil to water bodies. However, environmental quality parameters can differ between organic plant and animal production farms, moreover, they can be higher calculated per unit product.
