Organic farming

Shah calls for promoting organic farming

Shah said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set several targets to fulfil the goal of making India self-reliant in 'Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav' and one such target is organic farming.

Health impact of organic farming

Sustainability has emerged as the prevailing trend across industries, and it is equally making waves in the agricultural sector through the adoption of organic farming practices.

Natural farming and water conservation show the way

These encouraging efforts have been initiated by SRIJAN, a voluntary organization, as a part of a wider project called BIWAL for promoting sustainable development in the villages of Bundelkhand region. BIWAL’s model combining water conservation and natural farming has given a newfound strength to many farmers and rural communities.

What lies ahead for organic farming?

With the world population projected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, it is becoming increasingly clear that traditional farming practices are not sustainable in the long term.

A miracle for soil

Panchgavya for farmers consists of five products from the cow: dung, urine, milk, curd and ghee. These, which when mixed appropriately, have excellent, almost miraculous, results.
