Principles of Organic Farming

Published Feb 09, 2024

No use of GMOs

Genetically Modified Organisms, GMOs are highly hazardous pesticides (HHP). These are the synthetic fertilizers which should not be used while farming as they lead to health issues.

Control of Pests and Diseases Through Biological Methods

Rather than using chemical fertilizers farmers use biological methods to fertilize the plants or crops. Farmers use organic fertilisers made from cow dunk and plant waste.

Practice of Crop Rotation

Crop rotation is as essential as the use of organic products while farming. Crop rotation helps to maintain the soil fertility of the land and prompts better growth of the crop.

Extensive Breeding Using Organic Food

The breeding of two foods to make a new food that helps benefit the human body is the key factor of organic farming. Farmers use organic food only to breed the food variety.

Use Alternative Medicines and Preventative Measures

The use of alternative medicines and preventative measures such as neem oil, bio-fertilizers, cover cropping and many others are examples of organic farming preventative measures.

Perform Animal Welfare Practices

This includes outdoor natural grazing of animals, even the livestock and care for their nutrition, health, housing, breeding, and overall rearing.
