THE BENEFITS AND DRAWBACKS OF ORGANIC FARMING

Pages: 3977-3983
Abstract
For more than a thousand years, agriculture has supported the majority of Indians and their standard of living. Organic farming is a term that emerged in the 20th century, encouraging farmers to raise and harvest a wide variety of plants and animals without resorting to synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. The current study examines the financial repercussions of organic farming. This would let chemical farmers weigh the benefits of becoming organic before making the switch. The final price of each crop to the consumer would reflect the whole cost of production. Insight into the difficulties organic farmers encounter may help academics and politicians improve organic farming's public image and persuade more farmers to switch to the practice. In the current context, organic farming presents a compelling option. Organic farming is practiced by a minority in the state, mostly due to concerns about soil health and human health. The economic advantages and expenses of farming, the difficulties faced by organic farmers, and the social standing of farmers are all the subjects of this investigation.
