Abstract
The concept of organic farming is gaining momentum day by day. The awareness towards organic produce goods is increasing. So both consumer and farmers are now gradually shifting back to organic farming in India. It is believed by many that organic farming is healthier. Though the health benefits of organic food are yet to be proved, consumers are willing to pay higher premium for the same. Many farmers in India are shifting to organic farming due to the domestic and international demand for organic food. Further stringent standards for non-organic food in European and US markets have led to rejection of many Indian food consignments in the past. Organic farming, therefore, provides a better alternative to chemical farming. So an attempt is made in this article to study their awareness about organic farming, practices and problems of both organic and inorganic farmers.
