I have come to know about cost effective organic farming techniques in India. Which uses?

Organic Farming
K asked:


cow dung, cow urine, jaggery, flour, soil, neem oil (as pesticide) and water.

This technique says that each gram of cow dung has more than 500 crores of beneficial micro-organisms that make the soil more fertile. The dung generated by one cow is sufficient to produce organic manure for 30 acres. This natural fertilizer can be used for any crop.

Mulching plays a vital role in this technique. Mixed cropping and crop rotation is used to ensure replenishment of soil fertility.

In this system of farming no monetary investment on the part of farmer is required for purchase of seeds, fertilizers and plant protection chemicals from the market. The farmer can produce his own seed. More importantly, there is absolutely no place for fertilizers and plant protection chemicals in this scheme of farming. The whole philosophy behind this system is to make the farmer self-reliant by freeing him from market dispensed high cost inputs.

Are you interested in learning this technique?

PLEASE NOTE: i’ve always been the person to stand up for organic food. Nowadays, there’s many sources that stick up for organic food. My problem, is trying to show the other side of the argument for my essay (this is what we have to do) –> people AGAINST organic food. Is anyone able to find credible websites, with scholarly journals or articles by nutritionists/experts, as to why we SHOULDN’T be choosing organic food?
Hey Thanx for the quick answers guys! Much appreciated!

I must re-word: How do we establish society that prevents corruption - like organic gardening keeps out pests?

Organic Gardening
“Time” - the sage asked:


Every group, business, organization, etc. has a set system. Some people study it for control not meant for them, exploitation and disruption.
It is like an ordinary garden with no plan for pest control.
What ideas do you have for society that would be parallel to organic gardening? (plant rotation; one plant to keep another plant’s predators; soil protection; etc.)
