Organic Fruit Farming

When you hear someone say ‘live and let live’ what does one understand? Are we talking about letting only humans live? Or only animals? What about plants and generally, the earth, the soil, and therefore the air? we gajera global school in surat expect if we extend this philosophy to each organism, micro or macro, the world are going to be a greener, cooler and more beautiful place to measure , not just for humans but also for each other organism.

This is the elemental premise of organic farming.

For nature to thrive, we'd like all the pests, weeds, and worms living on the soil, within the air and in water. We as intelligent beings, got to understand that we've a responsibility towards the house where we sleep in, towards all the flora and fauna that depend upon the world. We cannot think only of our food, our profit and our needs. When the population was low, the pressure on resources was low. Consequently, species aside from humans thrived well. on the other hand, the expansion rate exploded, and that we needed more food to sustain ourselves. Pesticides and fertilizers came in at that time. we would have liked to extend production by any means, including killing weeds and insects.

But now, we've come to our senses. we've realized that by increasing the utilization of fertilizers and pesticides, we cannot increase production. we'd like to prevent using them so as for the soil to regain its nutrients in order that we achieve food security. When this reaslisation came, organic farming started thriving. In fact, it had been the first twentieth century when the shift started.

Now, a majority of European countries refuse to consume food and fruits grown using chemicals. In and around us too, organic farming has taken its firm roots, slowly but surely.

Today, a couple of our learners visited one such organic fruit farm to Gajera Charitable Trust know how they assist the whole ecology thrive. The visit showed them how we'd like biodiversity for our own benefit and well-being, that just one quite plant can erode the soil of its nutrients and plunge us to hunger and a scorched earth.

Today, we planted the seeds in some young minds. Tomorrow they're going to do an equivalent with their posterity. Maybe, in future, we’ll eat only organic food. We believe the day isn't far.

  Once there used to be a lake called the Aral Sea in Uzbekistan. It was considered as the fourth largest lake with an area of 68,000 m2. But then it started shrinking in the 1960s and by 1997, it had shrunk to only 10% of its original size. Satellite images by NASA in 2014 revealed that it had completely dried up and what was once called a ‘sea’ is now called a ‘desert’, the Aralkum Desert , to be precise.   The sad scene out there will break your heart and you will wonder at the folly and greed of humans. You’ll see rusted boats and ships lying in the middle of the desert. They constantly remind you of the depressing reason they are there—human greed. In a bid to boost agriculture, the Soviet government diverted the lake’s water to farmland displacing people and killing animals and plants in the process. Example like this abounds in human history. But what can we do to stop our future generations commit crimes like this against nature? As educators and parents, and as an...
