Jagadeesh Nature Farming

Fornire cibo coltivato naturalmente alle persone.

Nature Farming is a holistic method in which farmers are discouraged to buy market based inputs like chemical fertilizers, chemical pesticides etc. for growing plants within zero budget and encouraged to grow healthy soil with friendly earthworms and thereby grow healthy plants.

I practice methodology which involves locally obtainable natural bio-degradable materials and combine scientific knowledge of ecology and modern technology with traditional farming practices based on naturally occurring biological processes which are promoted by agri-scientists like Subhash Palekar.

The principal methods of Nature Farming include crop rotation, green manures and compost, biological pest control, and mechanical cultivation. These measures use the natural environment to enhance agricultural productivity: legumes are planted to fix nitrogen into the soil, natural insect predators are encouraged, crops are rotated to confuse pests and renew soil, and natural materials such as potassium bicarbonate and mulches are used to control disease and weeds. Natural farmers are careful in their selection of plant breeds, and organic researchers produce hardier plants through plant breeding rather than genetic engineering. I practice farming by understanding the relationships between organisms and their environment.

I concentrate my efforts towards fulfilling these major objectives: Practicing natural farming, Sharing this knowledge with farmers and the general public and delivering the naturally grown food to people. By following these objectives I want to save soil health, environmental health as well as the health of people around me
