Abstract

Now-a-days people are looking for ‘organic’ labels in food due to harmful ill effects of indiscriminate agrochemical usage. Organic farming, natural farming etc ensure eco-friendly foods. Here, a novel, yet, traditional way of food production using only trees and their parts and products to cultivate crops and maintain soil fertility is discussed.

This article shares the experiences of the senior author that facilitates a paradigm shift in farming research.
