Contract farming for organic crop production in India.

摘要

There is an increasing demand throughout world for organic food and fibre. In India, efforts are being made for organic crop production through contract farming. Experiences showed that farmers are benefited from technical guidance, supply of quality farm inputs and assured purchasing at remunerative price. This venture, executed by a tripartite agreement, would bring about favourable changes in the present conventional agriculture to make it sustainable and commercial. Likewise, consumers would get certified organic products at reasonable price.
