The campaign encourages farmers to reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers and adopt eco-friendly cultivation methods. Agricultural scientists are conducting workshops on composting, natural pest control, and soil health management. Consumers have shown growing interest in purchasing organic produce due to health and environmental concerns. Officials believe the transition to organic farming can improve long-term soil fertility and biodiversity. Several demonstration plots have been established to showcase successful organic practices. Farmer groups are actively participating in training programs. Market linkages are also being developed to support organic produce sales.
