career in organic farming
Career in Organic Farming: Organic farming is a process of farming in which clean and nutritious fruits, vegetables and grains are grown without using harmful pesticides. Generally, the quality of food items is affected by the use of pesticides during farming. Also, the fertility of the land also starts to diminish. In such a situation, through organic farming, along with growing nutritious food items, you can also save the land from becoming barren. In this, instead of things like synthetic fertilizers, pesticides etc., organic things like cow dung, vermicompost, biofertilizers, crop rotation technique etc. are used.
Knowledge of crops is essentialTo make a career in organic farming, you need to have knowledge about soil and crops. You should know which crop is planted in which season, how much water is needed for which crop etc. For this, you can opt for degree or diploma courses in organic farming organised by various institutes in India.
Start with complete planningIt would be better if you do a complete planning of your project before starting organic farming. Decide how much land you will farm, which crop will be right to cultivate on the land, what will be your budget etc. If you do not have your own land for organic farming, then you can start the work by renting a small piece of land. At the same time, when the work increases, you can expand the farming by taking more space.
You can take help from the governmentTo promote organic farming, the government is giving 80 to 90 percent subsidy in every state. You can also get government support for your project. For this, you will have to fill some necessary documents and submit them to the Department of Organic Certification of your state along with the application fee. Agricultural scientists will examine your land and decide which crop is suitable for its cultivation, then your project will be sent to the Agriculture Department for approval. After the project is passed, organic farming technique companies will contact you to set up the setup. With the money received from the government, these companies will set up a greenhouse and organic farming setup on your land and will also train you.
The graph of success will rise with experienceAt the beginning of organic farming, you may need farming experience. In such a situation, you can take help from a farmer. With time, you will start knowing the intricacies of farming on your own. As your knowledge and experience of farming increases, the path to progress will also open up for you. After a few years of hard work, you will be able to create your own identity with good earnings.
