ORGANIC FARMING is refers to agricultural
production systems that do not use
genetically modified (GM) seed, synthetic
pesticides or fertilizers. Some of the
essential characteristics of organic
systems include; design and
implementation of an organic system
plan that describes the practices used in
producing crops and livestock products;
a detailed record keeping system that
tracks all products from the field to
point of sale; and maintenance of buffer
zones to prevent inadvertent
contamination by synthetic farm
chemicals from adjacent conventional
fields.
Organic farmers use biological methods
and management practices such as
diversified crop rotations that improve
soil quality. Organic farming increases
soil organic matter, which enhances the
soil’s ability to absorb and store carbon,
cycle nutrients, and absorb water.
Increased soil organic matter contributes
to greater resilience under stresses such
as drought and flooding.
