Introduction
 The presentation will be describing the

understanding the factors associated with
the same.
 There will be a comparative study with
conventional methods of farming and the
differential factors will be highlighted

 The cost of
production in
conventional
farming is less.
 They have good job
opportunities for
farmers who knows
nothing but farming
 The cost of
procedure is low
thus the production
is high.

Advantages of organic farming
over Conventional farming
 This can be said that
gradual use of organic
farming can reduce
production cost by 25 %.
 This will reduce soil
erosion by 50 %
 This enhances bio
diversity, biological
cycles and soil biological
activity
 This increases the
amount of good micro
organisms and nutrients
in the soil by 30 %.

Impact of organic farming
 There has been promoting organic process

Future prospects of organic
farming
 In order to meet the coming
demand of food the production
has to be increased by 60 % in
