The Role of Legal Regulation in Promoting Organic Agriculture to Achieve Sustainable Food Security

Objective: The objective is to analyze the existing legislation, compare it with international standards, and propose improvements to enhance environmental sustainability and socio-economic progress. Method: This research adopts a multidisciplinary approach to analyze the legal regulation of organic agricultural production in Kazakhstan within the framework of sustainable development. By examining legislative frameworks and their effectiveness, the study draws on a thorough review of scholarly articles, legal statutes, policy documents, and international conventions related to organic agriculture. Results and Discussion: The results of this study highlight significant gaps in Kazakhstan’s current legal mechanisms regulating organic agricultural production, which require comprehensive reforms to align with international standards and promote sustainable development. The analysis reveals that while Kazakhstan has made progress, such as enacting the 2015 Organic Products Law, further legislative amendments are needed to integrate sustainable practices fully. Research Implications: The study concludes by recommending specific legal amendments to integrate sustainable development principles into Kazakhstan's agricultural laws, fostering better environmental protection and economic growth. Further research is suggested to evaluate the practical implementation and impact of these proposed changes on the productivity and sustainability of organic farming in Kazakhstan.
