जैविक खेती के लिए पंचगव्य बनाने की वि‍धि‍। In India the “Green Revolution” pesticides and chemicals were introduced and pushed through all the publicity media and scientific institutions.  It increased the agricultural productivity but as the years passed on, the soil got contaminated due to chemical residues. After realising the ill impacts of overuse of chemicals, once again farmers started to go back to what they knew best – organic farming. Tiny steps were taken to replace chemical fertilizers, pesticides and fungicides, with organic manure. But nothing was available to replace growth promoting hormones and immunity boosters, and to bring sustained higher productivity. So farmers, and some scientists, started experimenting with medicines mentioned in the...

Javik Kheti: samay ki maang  आधुनिक समय में बढ़ती हुयी जनसंख्या के खाद्यान्न पूर्ति हेतु किसान रासायनिकों जैसे-खाद, खरपतवारनाशी, रोगनाशी तथा कीटानाशकों को प्रयोग कर रहे है। सम्भवतः इनके प्रयोग से किसान प्रथम वर्ष अधिक उत्पादन तो प्राप्त कर लेते है, परन्तु धीरे-धीरे इनके प्रयोग से मृदा की उर्वरा शक्ति क्षीण होने लगती है और फसलों की उत्पादन क्षमता भी कम हो जाती है। इन रसायनों की अधिक कीमत होने के कारण खेती की लागत बढ़ जाती है। क्षीण हुई मृदा उर्वरता के कारण इन रसायनों के प्रयोग से भी वे मुनाफा प्राप्त नहीं कर पाते है । यहीं नहीं इन रसायनों के प्रयोग से पर्यावरण में भी विपरीत प्रभाव पडता है।           रसायनिकों...

फसलों मे कीट नि‍यंत्रण के लि‍ए जैवि‍क कीटनाशकों का प्रयोग Pesticides having biological origin i.e., viruses, bacteria, pheromones, plant or animal compounds are known as biopesticides. They are natural in origin derived from animals, plants, bacteria, and certain non-synthetic minerals. Bio-pesticides are highly specific affecting only the targeted pest or closely related pests. They are safer for living beings. Biopesticides are one of the promising alternatives to manage environmental pollution and subsequently has gained interest in view of the growing demands for organic food. Biopesticides can successfully be used for specific crops and niche areas as a component of IPM. Biopesticide in India  In India, so far only 12 types of biopesticides have been registered under the...

सब्‍जी फसलों का जैविक उत्पादन It is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people. It relies on ecological processes, biodiversity and cycles adapted to local conditions, rather than the use of inputs with adverse effects. Organic farming combines tradition, innovation and science to benefit the shared environment and promote fair relationships and a good quality of life for all involved.  As a component of organic agriculture, organic vegetable farming promotes and enhances natural diversity and biological cycles on the farmrather than relying on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, organic farming is based on making the farm self-sufficient and sustainable. Organic movement began in the 1930s and 1940s as...
