About

    Organic farming is a type of agricultural practice that focuses on maintaining soil health and ecological balance, while avoiding the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified organisms. Organic farmers use natural methods such as crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control to improve soil fertility and control pests. This approach aims to produce food that is healthier for consumers and more sustainable for the environment. Organic farming also promotes biodiversity, reduces water and air pollution, and supports animal welfare. Overall, organic farming seeks to create a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly food production system.
