Lets Go Organic! Because “Organic Is Future”

The pesticide industry in India is a very big one. The Indian pesticides market reached a value of INR 232 Billion in 2020. However, the havoc they wreck with the human lives is the last thing on the minds of the people who manufacture pesticides.

They put forward the explanation that they have to use them because there is no other way they can ensure quality and quantity of crop production. Which is totally wrong! We can not only improve our crop production but can also improve the quality of crops by adopting natural way of crop cultivation, that is going organic.

By going organic, we can ensure that the food we eat will have no negative impact on our body.

In 2016, Sikkim declared itself as fully organic – the first and only state in India. The lead taken by Sikkim state government is something the other states should try to adopt and copy. We cannot lay the blame on the farmers every time.

What the need of the hour is that awareness be spread amongst them about the effective techniques and practices to be used for organic farming. They need to made understand that the careless use of pesticides that they are involved in is having a very negative impact on so many people.

Organic foods promote healthier and more sustainable use of natural resources. Modern farming methods, including excessive use of chemicals, have led to a decline in soil fertility, and an increase in salinity and blue-green algae in waterways over the period years. Organic farmers try to minimize damage to the environment by using physical weed control, and animal and green manure.

Growing organic crops is a blessing, as it helps in providing healthy food to the society. And , it helps in minimizing climate change by cutting down greenhouse gas emissions.

There is no doubt that in this competitive world in which we live today, everything is solely driven by one thing and that is money. But don’t worry, organic food is often more expensive than conventionally-produced food because organic farming generally operates on a smaller scale. So there is higher chances that your produce would be sell at higher price than it would have with conventional way of farming.

Organic food will guarantee that our lives would be healthier, safer and longer. Lets go Organic! because “Organic is Future”.
