Organic farming is a holistic production management system which promotes and enhances agro-ecosystem health, including biodiversity, biological cycles, and soil biological activity. It emphasizes, on the use of management practices in preference to the use of off \u2013farm inputs. It is based on the consideration that the regional conditions require locally adapted systems. Organic production is accomplished by using, wherever possible, agronomic, biological, and mechanical methods, as opposed to using synthetic materials, to fulfill any specific function within the system. As organic farming addresses soil, human and environmental health employing eco-friendly approaches, it is an important option for sustainable crop production and crop yields. It combines both tradition and modern agriculture science to produce crops and livestock that flourish in the absence of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and hormones. Organically grown foods are free from residues and currently this aspect is receiving attention of consumers and all stake holders eventually resulting in bringing organic policies.<\/p>

India is not only bestowed with varied\u00a0 agro-climatic zones suited for growing different crops but also rich traditional knowledge which has contributed to native and traditional organic production systems in countless villages and farming communities. Our country endowed with natural resources to promote organic farming has the comparative and competitive advantages to produce organic foods at lower cost and round the year. This is also possible as large number of crops can be grown round the year owing to diverse but favourable climatic conditions in India. This is evident from the fact that organic farming has been one of the fastest growing markets in agriculture during the last twenty years. Hence, there is immense scope for the organic producers in the country to tap the steadily growing market both in domestic as well as international market.<\/p>

Considering the role of organic production in improving health, environment and its potential impact on the economy, the Government of India initiated the National Programme for Organic Production (NPOP) in the year 2001. This national programme involved the accreditation programme for certification agencies, norms for organic production, promotion of organic farming etc. In view of increasing demand of organic agricultural product,\u00a0Government\u00a0has been promoting Organic farming as a chemical free farming\u00a0\u00a0 through dedicated schemes namely Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) and Mission Organic Value Chain Development for North Eastern Region (MOVCDNER) since 2015-16.\u00a0Bhartiya Prakritik Krishi Padhati (BPKP) has been introduced as a sub scheme of Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY) since 2020-21 for the promotion of traditional indigenous practices including Natural Farming (NF).Under PKVY & MOVCDNER schemes farmers are provided financial assistance\u00a0of Rs 31000\/ ha \/ 3 years and Rs 32500\/ ha\/ 3years respectively for organic inputs such as seeds, bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides, organic manure, compost\/ vermi-compost, botanical extracts etc.\u00a0 In addition to above, support is also provided for group\/ Farmers Producers Organization (FPO) formation, training, certification, value addition and marketing of\u00a0organic produce.\u00a0Under BPKP, financial assistance of Rs. 12200\/ha for 3 years is provided for cluster formation, capacity building and continuous hand holding by trained personnel, certification and residue analysis.<\/p>

The Government of Karnataka has brought out a policy for the first on organic farming (Savayava Krishi Neethi<\/em>, 2004) subsequently the Karnataka State policy on organic farming 2017, to promote organic agriculture in the state in tune with the global movement and local needs. State level empowered committees and the working committees have been constituted for effective implementation of the policy. In 2018-19 the state Government launched zero budget natural farming as a scheme to grow safe food, to save soil fertility and to protect environment is the need of the hour.<\/p>

Establishment of Institute of Organic Farming (IOF)<\/strong><\/p>

Keeping in view, the prospective role of organic farming in mitigating the problems of resource (soil, water, and bio-diversity) degradation and to minimize the implications of climate change on agriculture, University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), Dharwad is the first SAU\u2019S in the country to begin comprehensive organic research programmes under UAS\u00a0 Net work Project on organic farming in the year 2003 on 26 research stations, mainly to bring predominant crop \/ crops of the region under organic cultivation. Looking into the trends after consolidation of first three year of research, in 2006 the research Institute on Organic Farming was established. Ever since the institute with its multi disciplinary approach is engaged in organic research, education and human resource development. The centre also operates All India Network\u00a0\u00a0 Project on Organic Farming (AI-NPOF) and was adjudged as the best centre for the period 2021-22 by the ICAR- Indian Institute of Farming Systems Research, Modipuram, Meerut. The Institute has laboratory infrastructure for quality analysis of plant, soil and mass production units for bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides. Fixed plots for evaluating crops and cropping systems under organic, integrated and conventional production systems. A bio-resource centre with animal and crop husbandry, organic input production units with prominent cropping systems is a certified organic block over 42 acres of land which is also a model organic farm for learning.<\/p>

The Institute of Organic Farming, UAS, Dharwad is presently engaged in research programmes to study productivity, profitability, sustainability, quality and input use efficiency of conventional and organic production systems across different agro-climatic regions of Northern Karnataka. The institute is also engaged in standardizing protocol for organic agriculture production, to develop beneficial microbial strains, to mass produce, popularize and supply quality organic manures, bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides and their quality analysis.<\/p>

Studies on \u201cEvaluation of organic, inorganic and integrated production system<\/em> and \u2018Evaluation of bio-intensive complimentary cropping systems under organic production system<\/em>) are being carried out in a fixed plots with an area of 1.20 ha (E-121) and 0.80 ha (E-122), respectively at Main Agricultural Research Station (MARS), University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), Krishinagar, Dharwad. These studies help to evaluate crops and cropping systems suitable for organic cultivation under rainfed farming situation of Northern Transition Zone (Zone 8) of Karnataka State.<\/p>

The results of studies under the ICAR-Network Programme on Organic Farming and UAS Network Project on Organic Farming, have been useful to know the comparative performance of important crops in a cropping systems viz., <\/em>Rice, pulse, maize-chickpea, chilli + cotton, groundnut-sorghum, soybean-wheat, potato-chickpea, pigeonpea, greengram, blackgram, pigeonpea + bajra, sunflower, safflower and sugarcane under organic, integrated and conventional systems. Among the systems groundnut-sorghum, soybean-wheat, blackgram, greengram, pigeon pea, pigeonpea + bajra and potato-chickpea were found more profitable. Similarly, new genotypes of crops are being evaluated under organic production system.<\/p>

Scientific validations of indigenous technologies related to organic farming <\/strong><\/p>

At the Institute of Organic Farming (IOF), UAS, Dharwad, the scientific validations of indigenous technologies have been carried out for greater adoption. Systematic and holistic research efforts resulted in formulating very effective and efficient methods for production of compost, vermicompost, other organic manures and liquid organic manures. Standardized protocols have been adopted by farming communities.<\/p>
