About this ebook
What is the history of organic farming, and how has it emerged as an alternative to conventional agricultural practices? This book delves into the development of organic farming, tracing its roots to early 20th-century initiatives that advocated for natural agricultural methods in response to the rise of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. It explores the philosophies and techniques that define organic farming, including crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control. The narrative discusses the growth of the organic movement, the establishment of certification standards, and the market and regulatory challenges faced by organic farmers. By providing a comprehensive overview of organic farming's benefits for environmental sustainability, health, and biodiversity, the book highlights its role in addressing modern challenges such as food security and environmental degradation.
