Organic Agriculture in Nepal

Organic Agriculture in Nepal

Nepal is an agricultural country so Nowadays to increase the agriculture production and its supply various kind of new technologies are being used in our country as well as other countries like generic modification, chemical fertilizers and synthetic pesticides. The use of such kind of chemical fertilizers can provide benefit for a certain period but in case of long use these chemical destroy the fertility or production capacity of the soil. In human health and life also it provides a negative impacts as well as also effects to the environment and leads to environment problems. In a same way use of genetic modification of food, crops, plants etc. is also decimating the natural variety of the plants.

Organic 

An agricultural system that promotes the agriculture environmentally, socially and economically balance/sound production of crops is known as Organic agriculture. It tries to optimize the quality production in all aspects of agriculture and environment by keeping respect to the natural capacity of plants, animals, human, local conditions and environment. Nepal and other countries is losing their fertile and agricultural land as well as production because of urbanization, industrialization and development of various kind of infrastructures. The increasing population of the world is suffering from this loss. There are some persons who use agriculture as commercial production which has long run effects on human life and environment. Because, in commercial agriculture various kind of chemical fertilizers to grow or get the large amount of crops but indirectly it will be effecting on human life, fertility of soil and environment for a long time.

Natural resources are the gift of nature and by proper utilization of these natural resources we should be able to produce high quality and high quantity agricultural products without leaving effect on human life and environment. If we are not aware of this situation, then we can’t control this problem and it will be great loss for human and their existence in this world. So, to control these problem necessary steps must be taken immediately by conducting organic farming all over the world. Through sustainable organic agriculture only we can save our planet or earth. This steps can be recognition for our future generations. To achieve our goals whole world have to work hand in hand with the same view.

As I said Nepal is an agricultural country and 85% of its total population depends on agriculture and almost 80% of the population survives as farmers.  The farmers works very hard to improve the production and quality of living and using the chemical fertilizers and pesticides for last 35 years to get higher production.To develop the agriculture in Nepal, modern technologies are being implemented.

Nepal is an underdeveloping country due to which the transportation is not properly develops in all the places so that the chemical fertilizer could be reach. So we still have time to make them aware about the current situation and make them stop from using such chemicals. Due to this, Nepalese farmers are still far from these negative effects of inorganic methods on environment. Overuse of inorganic farming causes  the deterioration of soil condition daily and rising the problem of producing contamination.
