ORGANIC FARMING
Organic
farming is a
means of producing food and fiber, including produce, grains, meat, dairy,
eggs, cotton, and flowers, that is better for the environment and healthier
than conventional farming. Instead of using pesticides, organic farmers try to
develop a biological diversity in their fields that disrupts the habitats of
pests. Organic farming also focuses on
the maintenance and replenishment of soil fertility. Organic farmers do not use
synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
