India's Organic Agriculture A Vision for a Healthy Country

Abstract

The two key elements of food quality and safety are receiving more and more attention from the general public. The inclusion of increased levels of conventionally grown food has pesticide residue, hormones, toxic metals, antibiotic residue, elevated nitrate, and genetically modified organisms. Farmed food has a significant negative impact on health. Additionally, foods cultivated traditionally are less nutrient-dense and contain fewer protective antioxidants. Due to its potential health advantages and rising food safety concerns, demand for foods cultivated organically has expanded over the past few decades. Organic food production is described as farming without using artificial pesticides, hormones, and antibiotics, as wellas artificial fertilizers and insecticides. A growing number of people are choosing to eatorganicfoods because of their advantages in terms of nutrition and health. Additionally, organic farming safeguards the environment and greater socioeconomic impact on a nation. India is a nation equippedwith native abilities and the growing possibility of organic agriculture. India, whichfor a variety of reasons lagged behind other countries in adopting organic farming, is now oneof the world's top producers of organic food, thanks to its rapid -growth in organic agriculture. Therefore, by ensuring sustainable development, organic farming has a big influence on a nation's health, like in India. We might conclude that encouraging organic farming is important given that India is presently the largest top producer of organic food. Farming there would eventually lead to the development of a politically, environmentally, and economically healthy country.
