Non-certified organic farmland

Percentages of farmland being used organically may vary because guidelines of organic farming practices vary across nations. For example, Cuba has a significant portion of its agricultural land managed without synthetic chemicals. Estimates suggest that about 25% of Cuban farms operate organically. However, in terms of land area officially classified as organic farmland, sources report a much smaller figure, around 0.03%, indicating a difference between formal certification and actual farming practices. This discrepancy can be explained by Cuba's widespread use of agroecological methods such as Organopónicos, especially in urban and small-scale farms, which may not always be formally certified but still follow organic principles.

In 2012, Bhutan set the ambitious goal to become the world's first 100% organic farming country. However, the percentage of officially certified organic farmland in Bhutan was about 5.6% in 2022. Despite this, over 80% of Bhutanese farmers practice traditional farming methods that are largely chemical-free, which aligns closely with organic principles, and their products are sold without organic certification but considered as organic.
