Verified by Experts

Organic farming is a cyclical, zero-waste procedure, where waste products from one process are cycled in as nutrients for other processes. This enchances the maximum utilization of resources and increases the efficiency of production. For example, a farmer of Sonipat, Haryana, Ramesh Chandra Dagar, includes bee-keeping, dairy management, water harvesting, compositing and agriculture in a chain of processes which support each other and allow an extremely eg and sustainable venture. Cattle excreta (dung) are used as dung in place of chemical fertilizers for crops. Crop waste is used to create compost, which can be used as a natural fertilizer or can be used to generate natural gas for satisfying the energy needs of the farm.
