In order to calculate the organic percentage, data for total agriculture in Greece were taken from FAOSTAT. The FAOSTAT figures include the common grazing areas, which are also included in the figure for organic agriculture. The Eurostat data on agriculture in Greece do not include the common grazing areas and are hence not used for the calucation of the share of the organic land area.  Due to the insecurity related to this issue, the organic share has not been communicated consistently in the various issues of 'The World of Organic Agriculture'. A graph with the shares based on the FAOSTAT  totals is below.
