Organic farming reduces synthetic chemicals and GMOs in favor of natural methods, promoting soil health and ecosystem preservation while producing high-quality, chemical-free food.
Organic farming methods in India include crop-based, livestock-based, mixed farming, traditional practices, zero budget natural farming, and organic horticulture.
Organic farming offers benefits such as reduced chemical usage, improved biodiversity, nutrient-rich foods, decreased energy consumption, and support for local economies.
Organic farming may result in lower crop yields, higher costs, market price fluctuations, less effective pest and disease management, and a lengthy transition period.
