As India completes its 78th year of independence, the Government of India is celebrating Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav. This occasion is dedicated to the people of India and the brave soldiers who fought for our freedom. While remembering the freedom fighters, it's also essential to acknowledge the contributions of farmers.
The Significance of Farmers in India's Independence
Agriculture has always been a vital sector of India's economy and nation-building. Even before independence, 95% of India's economy depended on agriculture, and it was the primary source of income for most of the population. However, under British rule, agriculture suffered a decline.
After gaining independence, India transformed its agricultural sector, becoming a food-surplus nation from a food-deficit one. Today, the agriculture sector employs over 60% of India's population, and more than 70% of rural families depend on it.
Indian farmers are now working towards liberating the country from chemical fertilizers and pesticides through organic farming. With the help of science and technology, organic farming is making Indian lifestyles sustainable.
The Role of Organic Farming in Nation-Building
For the past few years, India has been experiencing severe climate-related incidents, highlighting the need for sustainable farming practices. Conventional farming, which relies on synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers, has overtaken traditional farming, affecting people's health. As a result, the popularity of organic farming is increasing, and people are turning towards green and sustainable lifestyles.
Organic farming offers many benefits, including sustainable food production, increased soil fertility, and improved socio-economic conditions for farmers. The demand for organic food is constantly growing in developed and developing countries, with 130 countries producing certified organic food on a commercial scale.
Empowering Rural Farmers and Enhancing Food Security
Organic farming provides better income opportunities for rural farmers, especially in regions like Uttarakhand. By adopting organic methods, farmers can access premium markets and gain higher prices for their produce, reducing poverty and improving the quality of life in rural areas. Organic farming also enhances food security by producing healthier, chemical-free food, reducing the burden of disease and healthcare costs, and contributing to a healthier population that can drive economic growth.
