today, all over the word, we see the scientists, thinkers, politicians, consumers, producers and ecologists (who support the environment) pretest against the method of agriculture, because trying to increase the crop outcome to its maximum rate for hectare through the irregular use of chemical input in industrial agriculture lead to a disaster in human life which will endanger the whole life on...

Energy consumption can vary signifi cantly between conventional and organic production systems when accounting for direct energy inputs as well as indirect energy involved in manufacturing, shipping and applying pesticides and nitrogen-based fertilizers. Because organic agriculture reduces the amount of indirect energy inputs, it is often assumed that organic agriculture is less energy intensiv...

Introduction Organic farming systems are challenged by many of the same crop protection issues as conventional farming systems. Approaches to crop protection in organic agriculture differ widely among growers globally and regionally. At one end of the spectrum, organic growers use substitution-based approaches in large-scale operations to capture premium prices in a niche market. At the other e...

Organic agriculture is often proposed as a more sustainable alternative to current conventional agriculture. We assess the current understanding of the costs and benefits of organic agriculture across multiple production, environmental, producer, and consumer dimensions. Organic agriculture shows many potential benefits (including higher biodiversity and improved soil and water quality per unit...

Continued growth in the organic sector will depend on overcoming challenges to production, handling and marketing. These challenges can be met by research, innovation, advancement in the technology, and broad dissemination of the results of that research and development. The methodology will involve analysis of public and private funding of organic agriculture research in the US, Canada, Europe...
