Here I’m, standing, stranded,
Because of your desire
For a new realm.
Acclaim and fame
Making masses orphans, homeless
Apathetic, helpless and more.
The new rhythm of
Endless screams and explosions
Brought by you imprisoned peace.
Glory to you,
On decorating everywhere
With corpses.
When so many conflicts go on with the self,
Why extend it to others too?
Could’ve polemic rather engaging in bloodbath.
National Science Day: February 28th, 2022
The National Science Day is celebrated on 28th February each year in India to spread the message about the importance of science in the daily life of the people. On this day (28th February, 1928) Sir C V Raman had announced the discovery of the “Raman Effect” for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1930. The government of India designated 28th February as National Science Day (NSD) in 1986.
Science pushes us to our limits. Everything in our environment is based on science. The National Science Day is for those who believe in science, scientists, the next generation of scientists and technologists, and those who are fascinated by scientific discoveries.
National Science Day 2022: Theme
Every year, National Science Day is celebrated under various themes, and this year’s National Science Day 2022 is “Integrated Approach in Science and Technology for Sustainable Future.”
Each year, the themes for such day are varied, highlighting a particular aspect of the nation’s society. The themes are intended to recognize the contributions of common people, students, employees, popular officials, and representatives from a major scientific institution.
The History of National Science Day
Sir CV Raman was quite popular even during his learning days, as he used to excel at school and university. He has made some remarkable contributions to acoustics and optics. Raman was the first person who was appointed as the Palit Professor of Physics at the Rajabazar Science College in 1917.
During his trip to Europe in 1921, Raman became attract after seeing the blue colour of the Mediterranean Sea, which led him to conduct various experiments with transparent surfaces, ice blocks, and light. Raman then noted a change in wavelength after light passed through ice cubes. Soon after, he announced his discovery to the world, and a new phenomenon was born. Raman’s work was published, and it became quite impactful in the world of science.
In 1948, He left the IIS and founded the Raman Research Institute in Bangalore the next year. He was the organizations’ director, and stayed involved till his demise in 1970 at the age of 82.
Sir CV Raman is still remembered for his remarkable discovery of The Raman Effect and has many buildings, streets, layouts, schools, museums, educational clubs and many more named after him.
The National Council for Science and Technology Communication (NCSTC) convinced the Indian government to designate the 28th of February every year as National Science Day from 1986. This event is celebrated throughout India at schools, colleges, institutions, and other academic, medical, technical, medicinal, and research institutions.
On the first National Science Day (February 28th, 1987), the NCSTC revealed the creation of the National Science Popularization Prizes to honour outstanding accomplishments in science and technology.
ಮಗುವಿನ ದೈಹಿಕ, ಮಾನಸಿಕ ಹಾಗೂ ಸರ್ವತೋಮುಖ ವಿಕಸನಕ್ಕೆ ನಿದ್ದೆ ಬಹಳ ಅಗತ್ಯ. ಹಸಿವು, ಬಾಯಾರಿಕೆ, ಪಚನ ಮುಂತಾದವು ಆರೋಗ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ಹೇಗೆ ಪೂರಕವೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ನಿದ್ದೆಯೂ ಬಹಳ ಮುಖ್ಯ, ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಬೆಳವಣಿಗೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಿದ್ದೆ ಬಹಳ ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಬೀರುತ್ತದೆ.
ಇದನ್ನು ಐದು ಅಂಶಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ವಿವರಿಸಬಹುದು.
2. ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಆರೋಗ್ಯಕರ ನಿದ್ದೆ ಹೇಗಿರಬೇಕು?
ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಆರೋಗ್ಯವಾಗಿರಬೇಕಾದರೆ ನಿದ್ದೆ ಮುಖ್ಯ. ಇದನ್ನು ‘ಹೆಲ್ತಿ ಸ್ಲಿಪ್’ ಎಂದು ಕರೆಯಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಎಷ್ಟು ಹೊತ್ತು ನಿದ್ದೆ ಮಾಡ್ತಾರೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದು ಗಮನಿಸಬೇಕು. ಈ ನಿದ್ದೆಯೂ ಗುಣಮಟ್ಟದಿಂದ ಕೂಡಿರಬೇಕು (Good quality ship), ಮಲಗುವ ಕೊಠಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕತ್ತಲು ಇರಬೇಕು. ಜಾಗ ಹಿತವಾಗಿರಬೇಕು, ಶಬ್ದರಹಿತವಾಗಿರಬೇಕು. ಒಂದೇ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಲಗಿ, ದಿನಾ ಅದೇ ಸಮಯಕ್ಕೆ ಏಳುವುದು ಕೂಡ ಆರೋಗ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯದು.
3. ಕೊರೋನ ಹಾವಳಿ ಶುರುವಾದಾಗಿನಿಂದ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಖಿನ್ನತೆ, ಏಕಾಗ್ರತೆ ಕೊರತೆ ಮುಂತಾದ ಮಾನಸಿಕ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆ ಎದುರಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ನಿದ್ದೆಯೂ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಕಾರಣವಲ್ಲವೇ?
ಖಂಡಿತ, ಕೊರೋನ ಶುರುವಾದಾಗಿನಿಂದ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಅನಿವಾರ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಆನ್ಲೈನ್ ಕ್ಲಾಸ್ ಗೆ ಹೊಂದಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕಾಯಿತು, ಸ್ಮಾರ್ಟ್‌ಫೋನ್‌, ಲ್ಯಾಪ್‌ಟಾಪ್ ಬಳಕೆ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಯಿತು. ಇದರಿಂದ ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಖಿನ್ನತೆ ಜಾರಿದ ಉದಾಹರಣೆಗಳಿವೆ.
ಮುಖ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಅಗತ್ಯವಿರುವಷ್ಟು ಗ್ಯಾಜೆಟ್ ಬಳಕೆ ಆದ ಮೇಲೆ ಅದರಿಂದ ದೂರವಿರುವುದು ಲೇಸು. ಬಳಕೆ ಆದ ಮೇಲೆ ಗ್ಯಾಜೆಟ್ ಇಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡು ಮಲಗಲೇಬಾರದು. ಚಾಟ್, ಗೇಮ್, ವಿಡಿಯೊ ನೋಡುವುದರಿಂದ ಮಕ್ಕಳ, ನಿದ್ದೆಯ ಸಮಯ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ. ನಿದ್ದೆಯ ಕ್ವಾಲಿಟಿ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಇದರಿಂದ ನಿದ್ದೆಯಿಂದಾಗುವ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಅಂಶಗಳೆಲ್ಲ ಹಾಳಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಮಲಗುವುದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಎರಡು ಗಂಟೆ ಮೊದಲು ಎಲೆಕ್ಟ್ರಾನಿಕ್ ಗ್ಯಾಜೆಟ್ ನೋಡಲೇಬಾರದು.
ಯಾವ ವಯಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ಎಷ್ಟು ನಿದ್ದೆ ಬೇಕು?
ಆರೋಗ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ನಿದ್ದೆ ಬಹಳ ಮುಖ್ಯ. ‘ಅಮೆರಿಕನ್ ಅಸೋಸಿಯೇಷನ್ ಆಫ್ ಪೀಡಿಯಾಟ್ರಿಕ್ಸ್’ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆ, ಯಾವ ವಯಸ್ಸಿನವರಿಗೆ ಎಷ್ಟು ನಿದ್ದೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದನ್ನು ಪಟ್ಟಿ ಮಾಡಿದೆ.
ಕೃಪೆ: ಈ ಮೂಲ ಲೇಖನ ಸುಧಾ ವಾರತ್ರಿಕೆಯ 2022 ರ ಫೆಬ್ರವರಿ ತಿಂಗಳ 2 ನೆ ಸಂಚಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಮೂಡಿಬಂದಿದೆ.
ಅವತ್ ಒಂದ್ ದಿನ ಹಿಂಗೆ ಏನೋ ಯೋಚ್ನೆ ಮಾಡ್ತಾ ರಸ್ತೇಲಿ ನೆಡ್ಕೊಂಡ್ ಹೋಗ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದೆ.. ಹಾಗೆ ಸೈಡ್ ಅಲ್ಲಿದ್ದ ಒಂದ್ ಕ್ಯಾಸೆಟ್ ಅಂಗಡಿ ಕಡೆ ನೋಡ್ದೆ.. ಅಲ್ಲೊಬ್ಬ ಕರಿಯ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದ.. ನೊಡಕೇನೋ ಡುಮ್ಮುಗೆ ಕರ್ರುಗೆ ಇದ್ದ, ಆದ್ರೂ ನಂಗ್ ಇಷ್ಟ ಆದ. ಅದೇ ಗುಂಗಲ್ಲಿ ಮನೆಗ್ ಹೋದೆ. ಸಂಜೆಯೆಲ್ಲ ಅವ್ನೆ ಆ ಕರಿಯನೇ ಕಣ್ಮುಂದೆ ಬರ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದ..
ಮಾರನೆ ದಿನ ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಗೆ ಹೋಗ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದೆ ಮತ್ತೆ ಅದೆ ರಸ್ತೆ. ಒಂದ್ಸಲ ಕ್ಯಾಸೆಟ್ ಅಂಗಡಿ ಕಡೆ ತಿರುಗ್ ನೋಡ್ದೆ, ನಿನ್ನೆ ನೋಡಿದ ಆ ಕರಿ ಸುಂದ್ರ ಅಲ್ಲಿರ್ಲಿಲ್ಲ.. ಬಿಡು, ಏನ್ ದಿನ ಕಾಣ್ತಾನ? ಅನ್ಕೊಂಡು ನಿರಾಸೆ ಇಂದ ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಗೆ ಬಂದೆ. ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಮುಗೀತು ನನ್ ಫ್ರೆಂಡ್ ಜೊತೆ ಮನೆಗ್ ಹೊರಟೆ.. ಮತ್ತೆ ಅದೆ ರಸ್ತೆ ಈ ಸಲ ಕ್ಯಾಸೆಟ್ ಅಂಗಡಿ ಕಡೆ ನೋಡಕೇನು ಹೋಗಿಲ್ಲ, ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಮುಂದೆ ಹೋದೆ. ಕಣ್ಮುಂದೆ ಅದೇ ಚೆಲುವ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದ.. ಖುಷಿ ಆಗೋಯ್ತು. ಹಿಂಗೆ ದಿನ ಕಳೆಯಿತು.. ನಂಗೂ ನನ್ ಕರಿಯಂಗು ಒಳ್ಳೆ ಸ್ನೇಹ ಬೇಳಿತು ಆದ್ರೆ ಅದು ಬರೀ ಕಣ್ಣಿನ ನೋಟದಲ್ಲೇ ಇದ್ದಿದ್ದು. ಒಂದ್ ದಿನ ಸಂಜೆ ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಇಂದ ಮನೆಗ್ ಹೋಗ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದೆ ನನ್ ಬಾಕ್ಸ್ ಲಿ ಇದಿದ್ ಮೊಸ್ರನ್ನ ನ ಅವ್ನ್ ಗೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟೆ.. ಖುಷಿಯಾಗಿ ತಿಂದ..
ಮಾರನೆ ದಿನ ಸಿಕ್ಕಾಪಟ್ಟೆ ಖುಷಿಲಿ ಕರಿಯನ್ ನೋಡೋಕೆ ಅಂತಾನೆ ಕಾಲೇಜ್ ಗೆ ಅಬ್ಸೆಂಟ್ ಆಗಿ ಹೋದ್ರೆ, ಆ ಕರಿಯ ಅಲ್ಲಿರ್ಲೆ ಇಲ್ಲ.. ಹಿಂಗೆ 4 ದಿನ ಕಳಿತು… ಆ ನನ್ ಸುಂದ್ರ ಸಿಗ್ಲೆ ಇಲ್ಲ.. 5 ನೆ ದಿನ ಏನಾದ್ರೂ ಆಗ್ಲಿ ಅಂತ ಕ್ಯಾಸೆಟ್ ಅಂಗಡಿ ಅಣ್ಣಗೆ ಕರಿಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಕೇಳ್ದೆ.
“ರಸ್ತೇಲಿ ಒಂದ್ ಬೈಕ್ ಸ್ಪೀಡ್ ಆಗಿ ಬಂತು ಕರಿಯ ಅದುಕ್ ಸಿಕ್ಕಿ ನರಳಿ ನರಳಿ ಜೀವ ಬಿಟ್ಟ, ನಾನ್ 2 ವರ್ಷದಿಂದ ಆ ನಾಯಿ ಮರಿ ಸಾಕಿದ್ದೆ..”ಅಂತ ಹೇಳ್ತಾ ಆ ಅಣ್ಣ ಅವ್ರ ಕೆಲಸದಲ್ಲಿ ತೊಡಗಿದ್ರು. ಅವತ್ತಿಂದ ಯಾವ ಬೈಕ್, ಕಾರ್ ನೋಡಿದ್ರೂ ಕರಿಯಂದೆ ನೆನ್ಪು. ನಮ್ ಮನೆಲು ಒಬ್ಬ ಕೆಂಪ ಇದ್ದ, ಮನೆಬಿಟ್ ಹೋಗಿ ಒಂದ್ ತಿಂಗಳಾಯ್ತು.. ಕರಿಯ ನ ಹಾಗೆ ಸತ್ನ? ಜೀವಂತ ಇದಾನ? ಅವ್ನ್ Girlfriend ಜೊತೆ ಓಡಿ ಹೋದ್ನ? ಒಂದು ತಿಳಿತಿಲ್ಲ..
“ಅವ್ರು ನಮ್ ಹಾಗೆ ಜೀವಿಗಳು. ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಜೀವಕ್ಕೂ ಜೀವಿಸಕ್ಕೆ ಅವಕಾಶ ಮಾಡ್ಕೊಡಿ, ಜೀವಿಸಿ ಜೀವಿಸಲು ಬಿಡಿ ಈ ತರ ಕರಿಯ ಸಾಯುವಾಗ ಹೇಳಿರ್ ಬಹುದೇನೋ? ಆಲ್ವಾ? ಯೋಚ್ನೆ ಮಾಡಿ.. ನಾವೇನೋ ನಮ್ ಖುಷಿ ಗೆ ಸ್ಪೀಡ್ ಆಗಿ ಹೋಗ್ತೀವಿ, ನಮಗೂ ಕನಸುಗಳಿವೆ ಖುಷಿ ಪಡೋಕ್ ಏನೆಲ್ಲಾ ಮಾಡ್ತೀವಿ ಅಲ್ವಾ? ಹಾಗೇ ಆ ಮುಗ್ಧ ಜೀವಿಗಳಿಗೂ ಕನಸುಗಳಿವೆ, ಆಸೆಗಳಿವೆ, ಬದುಕುವ ಹಕ್ಕಿದೆ..
ನಾವ್ ಜಾಗರೂಕವಾಗಿ ಇರೋದ್ರಿಂದ ಸಮಾಜದಲ್ಲಿ ನಾವು ತಲೆ ತಗ್ಗಿಸೋ ಸಂದರ್ಭ ನೂ ಬರಲ್ಲ, ಮುಗ್ಧ ಜೀವಿಗಳ ಶಾಪಕ್ಕು ಒಳಗ್ ಆಗಲ್ಲ..
“ಇಷ್ಟೇ , ಇನ್ನೇನ್ ಇಲ್ಲ… ನೋಡಿ ಒಮ್ಮೆ ಈ ವಾಹನಗಳ ಚಾಲನೆ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನೀವೇ ಯೋಚ್ನೆ ಮಾಡಿ.. ಯೋಚ್ನೆ ಮಾಡ್ತೀರಾ ಅಲ್ವಾ???
” ಮುಗ್ಧಜೀವಿಗಳನ್ನು ಉಳಿಸೋಣ..”.
ಶಿವ, ನೀಲಕಂಠ, ಮುಕ್ಕಣ್ಣ , ಮೃತ್ಯುಂಜಯ , ಕಾಲಭೈರವ ಹೀಗೆ ಹಲವಾರು ನಾಮದಿಂದ ಕರೆಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ಈತನ ಚಿತ್ರ ಏಕೆ ಹೀಗೆ ಬರೆದಿದ್ದೇನೆಂದು ಎಂದು ನಿಮಗೆ ಅನ್ನಿಸುವುದು ಸಹಜ, ಆದರೆ ಇದರ ಹಿಂದೆ ಒಂದು ಅತಿ ಮುಖ್ಯ ಕಾರಣವಿದೆ ,
ಅದೇನೆಂದರೆ ‘ಶಿವನು ಶಾಂತತೆಯಲ್ಲೂ, ಉಗ್ರತೆಯಲ್ಲೂ ಅವನು ಚಿಂತನೆ ಮಾಡುವನು. ಯಾವುದೇ ನಿರ್ಧರಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳುವಾಗಲೂ ಅವನು ಯೋಚಿಸಿ ನಂತರ ತೀರ್ಮಾನಕ್ಕೆ ಬರುವನು’. ಹೀಗೇ ನಾವು ಸಹ ಯಾವುದೇ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಗಳು ಯಾವುದೇ ಸನ್ನಿವೇಶದಲ್ಲೂ ನಿಧಾನವಾಗಿ ಕೂತು ಯೋಚಿಸಿ ನಂತರ ನಿರ್ಧಾರಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು.
ಈ ಒಂದು ವಿದ್ಯಮಾನವನ್ನು ಮನುಷ್ಯನು ಪಾಲಿಸಿದರೆ ಅವನ ಮಾನಸಿಕ ಆರೋಗ್ಯ ಉತ್ತಮವಾಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದು ನನ್ನ ಅಭಪ್ರಾಯ.

Amazing health tips
yellow, musky walls
cracking, just the tiniest bit
from the corners –
the ceiling fan bumping
into my head when i stand
on the bed, i am Deodar;
drums filled with clothes, cushions,
cardboard, cups, record albums,
sit next to the entrance –
their lids are my ladders,
the corner my Mario playground;
the floor, freshly layered with mud,
my bare feet,
on the palms of earth –
the brown resembles my toes,
my eyes, my hair, my skin,
this is the womb of nature;
an orange light bulb,
hanging on the left wall
is my siren,
i am hiding in this room
from the footsteps above me,
this room is my sanctuary,
my playground, my library,
my only remaining memory
of the kachcha house on the hill;
At dusk, far away on the horizon,
The sun’s brimming pot of sunshine upturned,
Shadows creeping,
Draped over me like a pashmina shawl.
The night’s stars shimmering on my skin.
My body feels like an incandescent planet.
Is this what the cosmos is made of?
Earth kneaded in Brown hues,
Voluptuous cream and leftover light.
Is this what moonshine is made of?
As I speak to the moon,
It’s crevices and layers resembling my own.
As the night whistles in the distance.
Aromas of wild rose and the taste of pure water feeds my soul.
What is this fragrance of ignorance prevailing the sky?
One more dawn,
With its brimming pot of sunshine.
Did yesterday leave already?
Holding on to my limited view,
The world must be round.
For the horizon is all I can see.
Wondering with bland amazement and despair.
How do I measure the sudden bursts of random melancholy and satisfaction?
So much of the universe,
Hidden in bundles,
Wrapped in the mystery that is time.
The Thunga River is a river in Karnataka state, Southern India. The river is born in the Western Ghats on a hill known as Varaha Parvata at a place called Gangmoola. From here the river flows through two districts in Karnataka that is Chikmagaluru district and Shimoga district. It is 147 km long. And merges with Bhadra River at Koodli. The river is given the compound name Tungabhadra
Water is one of the most essential resources on earth without it there would be no life on earth. Thunga river is famous for the sweetness of its water. There is a common saying in the villages “Thunga Pana Ganga Sana” which means you must bathe in Ganga and drink from Thunga.
The villagers use the Thunga river water for drinking, bathing, washing and for their cattle. Agriculture is the major occupation across the basin. The major crops grow are paddy, jowar, sugarcane, cotton, and ragi
The river catchment includes a number of large and small units supporting industrial activities. Fishing is next major activity that supports more than 10,000 families. Brick making, potter’s etc. Are other livelihood options practiced along the basin. Millions of people survive on this water source, directly or indirectly. Hence river Tungabhadra is considered to be a life line of central Karnataka.
The importance of rivers around human habitations is well known. In olden days man was content to survive and exist with the basic needs. However, as civilization progressed his needs also increased. He began to crave for more luxuries and comfort and in his greed for these he began to destroy his surroundings indiscriminately. Nowadays, water flown in rivers are not clean as it used to be. As generations passed. The pollution increased
Largely the sources of pollution in Tungabhadra river are from agricultural run off, industrial effluents, sewage from urban settlements, mining activities and over exploitation of ground water. As agriculture is the main occupation in the basins. The use of fertilizer has increased over the year. Increase in fertilizer consumption has been raised to 700 tones in 2005. A lot usage of fertilizer and pesticides are leading to eutrophication and potential contamination. Hundreds of small and large scale industries release effluents into river directly without treating it. The amounts to billion of liters of sewage and effluents polluting the river as a result turning it into a drainage and dump yard
Over the years we have been hearing about the amount of pollution caused by humans but now it is important we understand the unprecedented damage done to nature. This threatens not only us but also aquatic life.
The industrial sewage inflow has affected the nearby villages in the basin. Harihara poly fibers have affected around 45 villages. People are exposed to foul smell and several other health implications. Washer men and fishermen who spent long hours in the river had experienced skin disease and other ailments. There was a case where around 13 fishermen were suffering from skin disease ‘Superficial folliculitis ʼ an inflammation of hair follicles. Even death of cattle.
Decline in fish species is another serious issue. There were nearly 120 species of fishes in Thunga river. Among them 28 species are threatened due to over exploitation and pollution. It is also stated that fish yeild decreased by 50% over 10 years. The list of impacts caused by pollution are never ending. This is a alarming time. Thunga river is not only a boon to life it has become bane to life for villagers.
In order to restore Thunga river ecosystem we need to start taking initiative that will help Thunga river recover from the damages that has been done over the years we need to adopt systematic approaches like organic farming, sustainable fishing
It is just a beginning. A lot more needs to be done and the government has to take a serious note of saving rivers and adopt permanent solutions to prevent the chouking of the rivers by weed and pollutants. To make the process more participatory, there is also need to create awareness among people from the different walks of life.
Organic farming is the best and most alternative for traditional forming tecqunicis. The producer of organic forming has high nutritional value in comparison to conventional food.
Organic farming help in reducing soil pollination and air pollination. Use of harmful chemical fertilizers and pesticides will poison our food cycle. India has the most organic farmers in the whole world
The only disadvantage of organic farming is costlier in comparison to conventional farming method. Consumption of organic food has many health benefits as compared to conventional food. The two types of organic farming are pure organic forming and integrated organic forming. The economy of scale cannot be achieved through organic farming since the production is in smaller amounts in comparison to conventional agriculture method. Health conscious consumers around the world are increasingly demanding organic foods in the market.
Feeding of increasing population of India is difficult with organic forming alone. Sudden switch over to completely organic is not possible. Moreover higher premium prices exist for organic certified products in domestic and international markets.
Organic farming is a modern and a sustainable form of agriculture that provides consumers fresh natural form products. Organic farming works in synchronisation with nature rather than against it. This objective is achieved by using techniques to improve crop yields without harming the nature environment as well as the people who live and work in it. Organic agriculture offers an exclusive amalgamation of environmental – friendly practice, which requires low external input, thereby contributing to increased food availability.
Organic forming has a very positive influence especially on Bird, insects, weeds wildlife, and soil flora and fauna. Conventional farming is capital intensive, which requires more manufactured inputs and energy as compared to knowledge and labour – intensive organic farming. Organic agriculture uses energy more competently than conventional agriculture. As compared to conventional agriculture, organic farming products cost – effective food products, free of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. It also provides employment opportunity and economic benefits to local communities. The methods utilised in organic farming are more costly and labour intensive, but prove to be more cost effective in the long run. Since organic agriculture supplies more greenhouses gasses in the soil, the farmers across the globe can solve the climate disaster by switching to organic methods.
In Addition, organic agriculture has the potential to address food security issues. Enough evidence is available to prove that organic crops are a better of nutrients then there corresponding conventional forms. Organic system give higher animal immunity and increased diseases resistance to plants, with 50% less mycotoxins in crops and persistent shelf life.
