Now a days, sustainable agriculture is major concern of the world, all leading agricultural countries like China, India, USA, etc are working together in several organizations such as Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), The Global Goals, World Food Organization to overcome the problem of food security and environmental health in upcoming years to meet the food demand goal in 2050 in a sustainable manner. Natural farming is amongst one of the ways to meet these demands. Natural farming mainly works on minimum inputs with minimum effect to environment and soil. Now, Indian farmers are also getting attracted towards natural farming as it does not require any kind of certification and also causes minor reduction in yield as compared to organic farming.
