FARMING TYPES

Mainly two types of Farming 1) Chemical Farming2) Organic Farming

Q.Why Organic Farming 1-To restore our natural resources. 2-To safeguard our environment. 3-And to obtain pesticide-residue free vegetables, fruits,

spices and other commodities. Organic or ecological farming has been observed to be

feasible in the long run in terms of soil fertility, stability of crop yields and economy.

(1)CHEMICAL FARMING Lays emphasis on use of Chemicals Advantages Disadvantages Nutrient specific Pollution (soil+ water+ air) Rapid results Soil quality high yields Eutrophication Biomagnifications

(2) ORGANIC FARMING Objective of Organic Farming:- International federation of organic agriculture movement (IFOAM) 1:-To provide food of high quality in sufficient quantity. 2:-To work within natural system and cycles. 3:-To encourage and enhance biological cycles involving micro-organism,soil flora and

fauna,plant and animals. 4:-To promote the sustainable use of natural resources. 5:-To maintain and increase the soil fertility for long term.

2.ORGANIC FARMNIG Principles of organic farming:-

1:-Use of ecofriendly technology based on biological system. 2:-Achieve and maintain soil fertility for optimum production. 3:-Aim for optimum nutritional value of staple food. 4:-Refers to integrated farming system.

COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE Chemical Farming Organic Farming

Use of chemicals Discard of chemicals Eco unfriendly Eco friendly

Nutrient specific but hazardous Nutrient specific + non hazardous The farmer spraying the Does not involve chemicals so no side effects. chemicals is affected. Uneconomical Economical Not sustainable Sustainable

(Nitrogen reduced + Reduced microbes (Higher Nitrogen fixation + + High Nutrition loss + unsustainable) High microbe activity + Less loss of nutrition + sustainable)

ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

Natural Resources Not Nutrient Specific remain intact Pollution hazards Labour

Use of Organic Wastes Timely vigil

Employment opportunities Generate Original Eco system Lower Investments

STATISTICAL DATA

•COUNTRY % OF LAND UNDER ORGANIC CULTIVATION• Contribution of different developed country in world organic farming land.(Data in

m.ha.)• Oceania 12.1• Europe 7.8 • Latin America 6.4• Asia 2.9• North America 2.2• Africa 0.9

INDIA ORGANIC milestones-2006

300,000 organic farmers 273,000 --- 373,00(lakh) ha, organic farm land Rs. 128 crores annual exports (2005-06) Rs 2300 crores domestic market potential

Features of India Organic 35% farmers – rain fed farming 45% farmers – 30-60% irrigated farming 30% farmers – fully irrigated farming 70% of farm land was traditionally chemically free and faced no yield loss in conversion Other 30% farmers reported 10-30% yield loss but received equal or more income

50 % or more produce farmers own consumption 40% marketable surplus of a farmer is sold in local vicinity- within the producing area 50% of the marketable surplus going into traditional channels without organic label Only 10% of marketable surplus sold as value added product with organic label 100 hectares of organic farmland would sustain one agribusiness enterprise and generates 17 additional

days of employment per hectare

Indian Organic Exports (Annual )Indian share in global organic market is less than .3%

STATISTICAL DATA IMPORTANT FACT

Organic culture have been started in 130 countries of the world, published in The World of Organic Agriculture 2009).

Currently 32.2 million hectares of agricultural land are managed organically and the value for organic foods in global market $26 billion US dollar, and is expected to grow to 102 billion US dollars in 2010.

The organic area in India is 2.5 million hectare including certified forest areas.

After declaration of Uttarakhand as organic state, the demand of organic farming has been increased significantly.Especiallly in basmati rice, In 2008 Total 3600 tons Organic Basmati paddy is produced in the Kharif- season 2008. it is assumed that area under organic basmati export program would be increased upto 2000 ha in karif 2009-10.

CHALLENGES FOR CERTIFICATION IN UTTARAKHAND A majority of agriculture practitioners in Uttarakhand are smallholders.

They are having fragmented land holding. They are often located in remote areas with long travel times from one place to

another. The over all revenue from their agricultural production is usually far too small to

cover the cost of farm inspection by external inspection body for each farmer . The other important problems among

the farmer are:- uncertainty about market size, delays in procurement and payment.only marginally higher profitability when all the crops (basmatiand wheat in most cases) are taken into account, and a high incidence ofpests.

Greatest satisfaction is:-A very large proportion (94%) of farmers are happy with the programme.This is because of: Low input cost; Improvement in soil condition and Onetime payment by the Board.

Constellation of organic farming

CONCLUSION• Organic Farming is Nature

friendly.• It is soil sustaining.• Thus organic farmnig can be

considered the most sustainable form of agriculture.
