Project report for Organic farming

Organic farming is rapidly growing in India and investors agree that challenges do exist in this sector but as soon as awareness and educational training about the benefits and the set-up of organic farming is spread to the farmers, a positive economic outcome will follow. Organic farming is an agricultural system that uses fertilizers of organic origin such as compost manure, green manure, and bone meal and places emphasis on techniques such as crop rotation and companion planting. Organic farming relies on ecologically balanced agricultural principles such as crop rotation, green manure, organic waste, biological pest control, organic fertilizers, and rock additives. A successful organic farming business always includes a good business plan.

It is the system of production that is capable of avoiding or majorly block the use of pesticide, synthetically compounded fertilizers, livestock feed additives, and growth regulators. The flexible organic farming system relies upon crop residues, green manure, weeds, crop rotations, legumes, aspects of biological pest control, animal manures, and etc. Methods of organic farming are used in developing countries, majorly because of economics and fewer resource of chemicals. Organic farming continues to be developed by various organizations today. Biological pest control, mixed cropping and the fostering of insect predators are encouraged. Organic standards are designed to allow the use of naturally-occurring substances while prohibiting or strictly limiting synthetic substances. For instance, naturally-occurring pesticides such as rotenone is permitted, while synthetic fertilizers and pesticides are generally prohibited. Synthetic substances that are allowed include, for example, copper sulfate and elemental sulfur.
