In fiscal year 2022, around 54 thousand tons of organic agricultural products were imported to Japan, of which fruits constituted the largest share, with around 15.5 thousand tons.
Agricultural produces distributed as organic foods in Japan have to be certified under the Organic Japanese Agricultural Standards (JAS) system or a comparable system in the case of imported products. The certification is done by auditors accredited by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.
