Abstract

The overuse of chemicals and pesticides on the concept of increasing production is declining soil health, biodiversity, and cropland. As a result of which it has been a major threat to agricultural longevity to be the same in future generations. Organic agriculture boosts agricultural production while also improving soil and consumer health, and it appears to be a superior alternative in many nations where the integrated crop-livestock system is still widespread. The paper attempts to bring light on the current scenario of paced organic agriculture and the solutions to restore pesticide-dominated agricultural farming.
