Overview

Organic farming refers to agricultural production systems that rely on ecological processes, biodiversity, and natural cycles rather than synthetic inputs such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Research published in this journal addresses multiple dimensions of organic and sustainable agriculture, including comparative studies of organic versus inorganic fertilizer strategies and their effects on crop productivity, nitrogen use efficiency, and water use in various agroecological contexts. Published work examines the application of permaculture practices to enhance agricultural sustainability, the development and characterization of bio-fertilizers derived from natural sources, and the potential of plant-based extracts as biopesticides for pest management. The journal has also featured investigations into soil health assessment methods and fertilizer recommendation systems that support more sustainable nutrient management. Additional research explores broader agricultural challenges including the nexus between climate change, land degradation, and food security, as well as strategic shifts needed to improve fertilizer response and crop production. This body of work reflects the growing importance of organic and sustainable farming approaches in addressing environmental concerns, resource efficiency, and food security while reducing dependence on synthetic agricultural inputs.
