Organic farming is a method of agricultural practice that relies mostly on natural ways and natural ingredients to grow crops as well as raise animals. It avoids the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and such, but utilizes techniques such as composting, crop rotation, and biological control of pests, among others, in managing the crops or livestock. Organic farming wants to maintain healthy soils, improve biodiversity, and minimize environmental impact, which results in sustainability and ecological balance. This works by receiving wider organic inputs such as manure and plant-based compost with practices that help the natural ecosystem.
Therefore, all organic measures may encourage a peaceful relationship between plants, animals, and the environment so that food is safer eventually for consumers and planet Earth. A high rise in demand is being experienced on the part of consumers in terms of organic products, making such methods alternatively viable and green for modern agriculture. Holding and thus building up soil health would also be included.
Processes such as green manuring, cover cropping, and reduced tillage actions will be used to improve soil structure and therefore fertility as well as hold moisture and reduce erosion. It is free of synthetic chemicals and rich in organic matter, thereby building up rich microbial-cum-plant-supporting communities in the soil environment in favor of healthy plant growth and resilience. Organic farming also supports the conservation of biodiversity through the provision of habitat for many organisms, ranging from beneficial insects to birds. This will enhance natural control of the pest population and subsequently reduce chemical interventions.
