Many UN and EU agreements binding on Latvia are aimed at sustainable development, biodiversity and mitigating climate change. In this context, one of the solutions is the development of concepts of bioregions or organic farming regions because the bioregion involves the principles and techniques of organic production and consumption and is characterised by an “organic” lifestyle, healthy nutrition, human relations, nature protection as well as the promotion of a particular area and the peculiarities thereof. Philosophically, rural development policy is based on the idea of balance. In globalised systems, small and local companies are pushed out of the market, which is distributed between large market actors; however, the bioregional approach is aimed at fostering the local economy through developing the rural environment in a particular area, protecting natural resources and biodiversity as well as preserving scenic values and the quality of the cultural environment. The development of a bioregion represents an activity, progress towards the goal and a dynamic process that is planned and evaluated using various criteria, guidelines and restrictions. Environmentally friendly business practice is a set of prerequisites that a business needs to meet in order not to cause damage to the environment. The relevant legal framework is essential to ensure the sustainable use and preservation of natural resources, as well as to promote regional cooperation and sustainable development. In view of the fact that bioregions are a new concept in Latvia, the present research aims to identify and analyse documents that govern environmentally friendly business practices in potential bioregions in Latvia.
