Introduction to Organic Farming

Organic farming is a method of crop and livestock production that involves much more than choosing not to use pesticides, fertilizers, genetically modified organisms, antibiotics and growth hormones.
Organic production is a holistic system designed to optimize the productivity and fitness of diverse communities within the agro-ecosystem, including soil organisms, plants, livestock and people. The principal goal of organic production is to develop enterprises that are sustainable and harmonious with the environment.



The general principles of organic production,
  1. protect the environment, minimize soil degradation and erosion, decrease pollution, optimize biological productivity and promote a sound state of health 
  2. maintain long-term soil fertility by optimizing conditions for biological activity within the soil
  3. maintain biological diversity within the system
  4. recycle materials and resources to the greatest extent possible within the enterprise
  5. provide attentive care that promotes the health and meets the behavioural needs of livestock
  6. prepare organic products, emphasizing careful processing, and handling methods in order to maintain the organic integrity and vital qualities of the products at all stages of production
  7. rely on renewable resources in locally organized agricultural systems
yes, these are all the advntages of the Organic Farming. ABCD Farming provides as much as information about Organic Farming.
