Organic Farming & The Growth In India

By Rob Sutter


I believe that there is much to be said about organic farming in this day and age. After all, the crops in question are in such high demand and the presence of fresh food is something that has been able to be seen all around the world. After reading a recent article, it has dawned on me that India is slowly but surely starting to see this level of farming come about to a great extent as well. I was not too sure about the details but the report, to say the least, intrigued me.

A recent article went into detail about the Economic Times and how it seems as though organic farming has seen a great increase in India. Keep in mind that society, in general, is becoming far more focused on the presence of healthy food, so it's not too surprising that fruits and vegetables would be able to come in effect. In addition, take into account how health-conscious India, in particular, has become. This is where organics come into play and they are ones which networks like Colle Farmers Market are able to endorse.

I do not think that anyone can say anything about the ways in which these particular crops are able to attain the attention of the public. I didn't realize how true this was until I read the article, as it seems as though growers have been able to attain 118% higher price for the leafy vegetables that have been grown. Considering that 53% have been seen from grains, it's apparent that the former statistic stands tall. To me, this speaks volumes about the demand that is tied into produce.

In fact, the relationship between the grower and the consumer is easily one of the most organic that you can imagine, ironically enough. Keep in mind that farmers, typically, have to make their business on a local basis, meaning that they have to appeal to those who live nearby. In return, consumers are able to do business with growers, making absolutely certain that they are paid for their efforts. Giving business to a smaller establishment holds a bevy of incentives that work to help both parties.

Organic farming has been seen in a great way within India and it's not hard to see why. It's an economic choice to make, of course, but it is something that will be able to stand on its own as far as health is concern. Those living in India have demanded greater food be made available and they have more than gotten their wish. With more farming efforts being seen in the future, most likely, I believe that many other areas are going to be able to benefit, too.
