Abstract

Pesticides and fertilizers Excess or indiscriminate use of Pesticides and fertilizers has led to the entry of detrimental chemical compounds into food chain leading to serious health implications and deterioration of surrounding ecology. Besides, for sustainable agriculture system productivity and resource quality are also indispensable. In such situations, organic farming can play an important role to get-rid from these snags. Organic farming proliferates natural processes and cycles in harmony with environment. Hence, soil productivity and also pest control are maintained effectively. Organic agriculture contributes to food security by improving household food self-sufficiency and/or by building farmers’ self-reliance. Blending of modern science and traditional knowledge, organic agriculture is capable enough to convert low input and subsistent farms to more productive one with increased capacity to manage locally available resources. Thus, enhanced food production, income generation and ecological conservation set the path towards sustainable development.
