Concluding
Organic farming systems can provide agronomic and environmental benefits through structural changes and tactical management of agricultural systems. Organic farming has advantages for both developed countries (environmental protection, biodiversity enhancement, reduced energy use and CO2 emissions) and developing countries like India (sustainable resource use, increased crop yields without over-reliance on expensive external inputs, environment and biodiversity protection, and so on).
Sustainable Development and Organic Farming – Scope and Future
Organic farming is a type of farming that maintains and improves the natural balance of the environment. To put it another way, this farming technique is based on the usage of organic fertilizers. Traditional farming practices include the use of chemical fertilizers, harmful pesticides, and other practices that have a significant negative impact on the environment. As a result, this method of farming is used to create toxin-free food for consumers while also maintaining soil fertility and contributing to ecological balance. This form of farming promotes environmentally responsible, long-term economic development.
Sustainable development is defined as the mutually beneficial interaction of legitimate corporate and economic interests, government and polity interests, and civil society and culture interests. These cultural relationships, on the other hand, do not occur in a vacuum. On a physical and material level, society is constrained by the carrying capacity of various ecosystems, landscape ecology, and, in the end, the Earth’s biosphere or nature. Individuals’ caring capacity contextualizes society’s three-fold functional distinction on a psychological and spiritual level. As a result, sustainable development is a multifaceted notion with at least four components. In general, there are four key pillars (dimensions) to sustainable development: social, economic, environmental, and institutional.
