As of 2001, the estimated total market value of organic products was estimated to be $20 billion. By 2002 this was $23 billion and by 2007 more than $ 46 billion according to Organic Monitor. In recent years both Europe and North America have experienced strong growth in organic farm land. However, this growth has occurred under different conditions. While the European Union has shifted agricultural subsidies to organic farmers due to environmental benefits, the United States has taken a free market ap proach. As a result, as of 2008, 4.1 percent of the European Union’s farm land was organically managed compared to just 0.6 percent of United States farmland. The growth of organic farmland area in the EU was 21% from 2005 to 2008 reaching a total of 7.8 million hectares. Statistics and Emergnig Trends 2009 lists the countries which had the most hectares in 2007. The country with the most organic land is Australia, with mote than 12 mil lion hectares, lollowed by Argentina, Brasil and the US. In total 32.2 mil lion hectares were under organic management in 2007. For 1999, 11 million hectares of organically managed land are reported, In recent years organic agriculture has grown greatly. Considering this rapid growth, it is within the nature of organic farming to keep it from becoming a large scale industrial business. As to organic food, two studies have found that children fed or ganic diets experienced significantly lower pesticide exposure than children fed conventional diets. Although the researchers did not collect health out come data in this study, they concluded "children whose diets consist of or ganic food items would have a lower probability of brain health risks". A 2007 study found that consumption of organic milk is associated with a de crease in risk for skin disease. How much was the estimated total market value of organic products estimated to be by 2002

Text 4Queuing is nothing special in Japan. Every day, television programs show long lines of people queuing for up to one hour even in front of regular noodle shops, only to finish their food within less than ten minutes.Why Japanese people queue so often Do they love it Probably they do. According to Japanese people, just like an excessively high price can evoke an image of equally high quality, long waiting lines act as an indicator for popularity, reduce availability and increase the subjective value of a good. Thus, for many Japanese customers, waiting lines are probably the most effective advertisement. For example, in an article published in The Japan Times in summer 2007, a Japanese woman confessed that she enjoyed queuing outside shops and restaurants and that she usually joined the line before asking the person in front of her what kind of product was sold. Standing in line also increases and extends anticipation until—yatto! (finally!)—patience is rewarded with the desired product. But when taken to an extreme level, the product one is actually queuing for ceases to be of any importance at all.There are also some customers who are unable to queue or who are unwilling to wait, thinking it’s a waste of time queuing in a line. What could they do They can rent a queuer who will stand in line and purchase the desired product for them. Obviously, this service is not free of charge. Some service companies who offer all kinds of unusual service provide rentable "queuers" . What’s more, in addition to providing queuers to individuals, the service companies also provide queuers to some shops to increase the image of a hard-to-get product and make customers want to join the line by forming or extending lines. Therefore, waiting lines have become a marketing tool and it would not be surprising to find professional queuers in a line. Some people view it a pure speculation, but they can’t deny that it really works and the wage of a few professional queuers to keep the line in shape would be a minor investment compared with what would happen if the queue suddenly disappeared.However, success is not always guaranteed because the attractiveness of waiting in line can easily backfire if the desired product does not meet expectations. What is the marketing tool appears in the text().
