Analytical maintenance practice of income generation in GRA fields and organic farming in India

Abstract

In past decades, agricultural development majorly focused on short term productivity based on external 
inputs resulting in neglect and improper use of natural resources. Thus, it leads to ecosystem damage 
and loss of food security. This has forced the farmers, scientists and the policy makers to look at 
sustainable farming techniques through organic farming. In India there is greater possibility of bringing 
green revolution agricultural areas under the gambit of sustainable farming/organic farming. Research 
and development is necessary to better understand the complex ecological processes as well as the 
management capacity of farmers. Hence, this research study was done to analyze the reach and 
adaptation level of sustainable farming techniques by organic farmers and non- adoption (sustainable 
farming techniques) reasons among the Green Revolution Agriculture (GRA) farmers at farm level. This 
will help us to find different strategies to popularize sustainable organic farming among the farmers in 
order to overcome food crisis.
