Organic farming boosts soil health and community well-being, empowering farmers to prioritize ecology over profits.
Organic farming is becoming popular because people want healthier, eco-friendly products. A study in Karnataka, India, looked at why farmers there choose organic farming. They found that many farmers do it to protect the environment and for their own well-being. Some farmers do it for money and have official certification. The study suggests that more help is needed for farmers who want to go organic, like better training, easier access to resources, and improved ways to sell their produce.
