The products of biological agriculture, according to the European Legislation, bring special labelling that concerns their biological way of production. The labelling should contain: the name of the enterprise that produces, packs or trades the product and the certification code, the name (logo) of the institution of certification which should be recognized from the responsible authority (Ministry of Agriculture), the indication “product of biological agriculture”, or “product of biological agriculture in transformation”, depending on the level of certification. The Organism of Certification and Supervision of Agricultural Products, with the discreet title AGROCERT is a Legal Person of Private Right of the Ministry of Rural Development and Food that works for the public interest under the supervision of the Minister of Rural Development and Food ([N].2637/98).
