ADVANTAGES OF ORGANIC FARMING
Consumer Benefits
(i) Nutrition The nutritional value of food is largely a function of its vitamin and mineral content. In this regard, organically grown food is dramatically superior in mineral content to that grown by modern conventional methods. It fosters the life of the soil. Healthy plants mean healthy people, and such better nourished plants provide better nourishment to people and animals alike.
(ii) Poison-free and tasty A major benefit to consumers of organic food is that it is free of contamination with health harming chemicals such as pesticides, fungicides and herbi¬cides. Organically grown food tastes better than that conven¬tionally grown. The tastiness of fruit and vegetables is directly related to its sugar content, which in turn is a function of the quality of nutrition that the plant itself has enjoyed.
(iii) Food Keeps Longer Organically grown plants are nourished naturally, rendering the structural and metabolic integrity of their cellular structure superior to those convention¬ally grown. As a result, organically grown foods can be stored longer and do not show the latter's susceptibility to rapid mold and rotting.
Growth Benefits Disease and Pest Resistance a healthy plant grown organically in properly balanced soil resists most diseases and insect pests.
Weed Competitiveness Weeds are nature's band-aids, placed by the wisdom of creation to heal and restore damaged soils. When farmers husband the life of the soil, as they do in organic agriculture, the improved conditions dissuade many weeds and favor their crops. The crops, being healthier, are also better able to compete with those weeds that are present.
Lower Input Costs By definition, organic farming does not incur the use of expensive agrichemicals-they are not per¬mitted. The greater resistance of their crops to pests and the diseases save farmers significantly in expensive insecticides, fungicides and other pesticides.
Drought Resistance Organically grown plants are more drought tolerant. Since chemical fertilizer is soluble, plants are forced to imbibe it every time they are thirsty for water. They can and do enjoy good growth as long as water is readily available. As soon as water becomes limited, the soluble nutrient salts in the cells of chemically-fed plants are unable to osmotically draw sufficient water to maintain safe dilution. They soon reach toxic concentrations, and the plant stops growing, hays off and dies earlier than it otherwise would have.
Added Value There is a discerning market of consumers who recognize the greater food value of organic produce and are willing to pay premium prices for it.
