Abstract: The development of organic agriculture in Kazakhstan is strategically important area that contributes to ecological, economic and social sustainability of the country's economy. This farming system involves increasing production volumes based on natural methods, including biodiversity, biological cycles, natural methods of pest control, while avoiding use of chemical mineral fertilizers and pesticides. The goal is to substantiate the prospects of organic farming in process of diversification, identify mechanisms for the effective promotion of organic products in domestic and foreign markets. Methods - content analysis of key trends in formation of integral ecosystem, monitoring of areas under organic crops. Results - the current state of ecological agro-complex is analyzed, main growth points are identified. Based on the study of information obtained, priority areas for expanding the sphere of organic farming are determined. Recommendations have been developed for domestic market of organic products, improvement of certification system, and support for farms using "green" technologies. Conclusions - organic farming has enormous potential in the republic, which has not yet been fully realized. The development and implementation of more effective technologies for growing food crops, stimulating investment in this area, training and advanced training of workers in AIC will contribute to the development of eco-farming in the Republic of Kazakhstan and increase in its share in export of agricultural products. It has been determined that rate of land involvement in organic sector, improvement of infrastructure is insufficient to develop potential of green farming and create competitive market. Natural farming is not only environmentally friendly, safe, high-value food products, but also agricultural model that protects ecological situation in the country, reduces negative impact on environment, helps restore soil fertility, improves quality of life of the population, and ensures food security of the republic.
