"Nature has provided us for our needs, but not for our greeds!

waste materials of plant and animals as a fertilizers and pesticides to meet the requirement of crops.

humans but consuming organic fruits and vegetables boost our health and health related problems.

and crops.

in crops for their growth and development.


Demerits of Organic Farming:

of crops.


2. Time Consuming: Although organic farmings have immense health benefits but natural things takes time to grows and

gives late results which can't meet the demands of day to day growing population like India. Because we know that

weeds grows faster than crops. 


3. Demand Inefficient: India is now the highly populated country among other countries so its being very difficult to 

meet and fill the stomach of every Indian. 


4. Lack of Awareness: Organic farming yet not get the boost because of lack of self awareness among people. 


Conclusion: Organic farmings have lots of health, nutritional benefits which not only help humans but also the other creatures

plants to grow healthy and most importantly it reduces the air pollution which helps us to inhale fresh air.

but its not impossible.Government have brings lots of schemes which help farmers to boost their income and grow their crops healthy.
