| Abstract/Description: | Organic farming involves the use of organic amendments, biofertilizers, biological pest control, and crop rotation while excluding synthetic pesticides and fertilizers to enhance the quality of the produce and promote environmental safety. Organic farming improves physical, chemical and biological properties of soil and improves the quality of the produce. But, it produces 20-40% lesser yield of onion and garlic compared to conventional farming. However, yield could be compensated with higher premium price available in the market for organic produce. Although organic farming shows 20.0-40.0% reduction in bulb yield compared to conventional farming, it improved physical, chemical and biochemical quality of soil and quality of the produce. The consumption of organic foods haveng improved biochemical quality may be useful in improving human health. The reduced yield of organic farming can be compensated with a premium premium price available for the organic produce in the market |
