Organic farming enhances agro-ecosystem health, which includes soil biological activity, biodiversity, and biological cycle. It excludes the use of chemical or synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and growth regulators.

For instance, in 2013, the government of India promoted production of organic fruits, vegetables, and crops through various schemes such as Horticulture Mission for North East and Himalayan States (HMNEH), National Horticulture Mission (NHM), Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY), and others. Under NHM, the government provides incentive to the cultivators of organic products.

Europe is expected to show a significant market growth and accounted for 25% share of the global organic farming market in 2017, owing to stringent rules and regulations on chemical or conventional fertilizers and GMO products in this region.
