摘要

The current paper presents a regional analysis of organic agriculture using the case study of NCR, Delhi. The main purpose of the regional analysis in this study is to determine the extent and character of organic agriculture in the National Capital of India. Delhi, with ever-increasing population, requires horticultural produce without compromising with quality. Looking at these facts, two objectives were outlined: to study the natural methods used in the farmland of Organic Acre; to measure the total production of Organic Acre. In order to accomplish the above objectives, a field survey was conducted in the village of Bankner, North- West Delhi. Besides that, different challenges posed by the farmers have also been discussed.
