In the flow of ongoing changes, between ecology, sustainable development, fair trade, corporate social responsibility, renewable energies, etc., where to locate the Bio ? Natexpo 2022, the great European organic meeting, which was held in Lyon in September, has the merit of setting the record straight by reminding us that Bio was, somewhere, at the origin of this whole movement by asking the question of healthy eating, free of pesticides. By reinventing yourself, current Bio takes back its place as a pioneer who shows the way. It regains its original values : ethics, respect for artisanal work, has always been part of the values of organic (although a certain industrialization of organic, victim of its success, could have made us forget it).
