  2. Back to Basics – The Organic Way Presentation by A K Gupta, Advisor, Agriculture and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA), Ministry of Commerce, Govt. of India, New Delhi

  3. APPROACH • FOCUS ON IMPROVEMENT OF THE SOIL FERTILITY BY NATURAL MEANS • BALANCE PLANT NUTRITION THROUGH RECYCLING OF ORGANIC MATTER AND LOCALLY AVAILABLE SOURCES OF NUTRIENTS. • AGRO ECO SYSTEM APPROACH - COVER CROPS - CROP ROTATION - INTERCROPPING • PREVENTIVE MEASURES BY BIOLOGICAL PEST CONTROL AND MECHANICAL WEEDING • ORGANIC FODDER FOR LIVESTOCK • ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR AND TREATMENT OF FARM ANIMALS

  4. PRINCIPLES (General Level) • IMPROVE AND MAINTAIN THE NATURAL LANDSCAPE AND AGRO ECO SYSTEM • AVOID OVER-EXPLOITATION AND POLLUTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES • MINIMIZE CONSUMPTION OF NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY AND RESOURCES • PRODUCE SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES OF NUTRITIOUS WHOLESOME AND HIGH QUALITY FOOD • PROVIDE ADEQUATE RETURNS, WITHING A SAFE, SECURE AND HEALTHY WORKING ENVIRONMENT • ACKNOWLEDGE INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE AND TRADITIONAL FARMING SYSTEMS

  5. PRINCIPLES(Practical Level) • MAINTAIN AND INCREASE THE LONG-TERM FERTILITY OF THE SOIL • ENHANCE BIOLOGICAL CYCLES WITHIN THE FARM, ESPECIALLY NUTRIENT CYCLES • PROVIDE NITROGEN SUPPLY BY INTENSIVE USE OF NITROGEN FIXING PLANTS • BIOLOGICAL PLANT PROTECTION BASED ON PREVENTION INSTEAD OF CURING • DIVERSITY OF CROP VARIETIES AND ANIMAL SPECIES, APPROPRIATE TO THE NEEDS OF THE ANIMALS • ANIMAL HUSBANDRY APPROPRIATE TO THE NEEDS OF THE ANIMALS CONTD….

  6. PRINCIPLES(Practical Level) • BAN ON SYNTHETIC CHEMICAL FERTILISERS, PLANT PROTECTION, HORMONES AND GROWTH REGULATORS • PROHIBITION OF GENETIC ENGINEERING AND ITS PRODUCTS • BAN ON SYNTHETIC OR HARMFUL METHODS, PROCESSING AIDS AND INGREDIENTS IN FOOD PROCESSING

  7. DIVERSITY FOR ECOLOGICAL BALANCE • GROW DIFFERENT CROPS: MIXED CROPPING, CROP ROTATION • KEEP FARM ANIMALS: INTEGRATED FARMING • ENCOURAGE THE PRESENCE OF WILDLIFE: INSECTS, SPIDERS, BIRDS, FROGS ETC. • PROMOTE DIVERSITY IN SOIL LIFE: MICROBES, EARCH WORMS, ALGAE, FUNGUS ETC.

  8. RECYCLE - NUTRIENTS INSTEAD OF EXTERNAL INPUTS • COMPOSTING AND MULCHING • EFFICIENT USE OF ANIMAL MANURES • USE NITROGEN FIXING PLANTS SUCH AS LEGUMINOUS SPECIES • PRODUCE SEEDS AND SEEDLINGS ON THE FARM (PLANTING MATERIAL) • PRODUCE BOTANICAL PESTICIDES ETC. FROM LOCALLY AVAILABLE MATERIAL WITHIN THE FARM

  9. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES • NO APPLICATION OF SYNTHETIC PESTICIDES AND FERTILIZERS (“CHEMICALS”) • APPROPRIATE STOCKING RATES OF FARM ANIMALS TO AVOID POLLUTION OF GROUND WATER, SOIL EROSION AND OVERGRAZING • NO OVEREXPLOITATION OF WATER RESOURCES (E.G. FOR IRRIGATION) OR OTHER NATURAL RESOURCES (E.G. WILD SPECIES)

  10. SYSTEM APPROACH: USING NATURAL ECO SYSTEM AS A MODEL NATURAL FOREST ECOSYSTEM DIVERSITY ECOBALANCE NUTRIENT CYCLES SOIL FERTILITY

  11. SYSTEM APPROACH: USING NATURAL ECO SYSTEM AS A MODEL ORGANIC FARM ECOSYSTEM CROP DIVERSITY BIO-CONTROL RECYCLING NUTRIENTS SOIL PROTECTION

  13. IS TRADITIONAL FARMING ORGANIC?

  14. WHAT TRADITIONAL & ORGANIC FARMING HAVE IN COMMON • NO USE OF CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS, INSECTICIDES, FUNGICIDES, HERBICIDES, GROWTH PROMOTERS ETC. • NO USE OF GENETICALLY ENGINEERED PLANTS AND ANIMALS • USE OF ANIMAL MANURES

  15. ORGANIC METHODS WHICH CAN BE FOUND IN TRADITIONAL FARMING • CLOSED NUTRIENT CYCLES, LOW EXTERNAL INPUTS • RECYCLING OF BIOMASS THROUGH MULCHING OR COMPOSTING • MIXED CROPPING AND / OR CROP ROTATIONS • SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES: SOIL, ENERGY, WATER • MAINTENANCE OF SOIL FERTILITY, PREVENTION OF SOIL EROSION • ANIMAL FRIENDLY HUSBANDRY PRACTICES
