Scientists insist such farming kills bio-diversity, affects the ecological balance
which poses risk of survival for several species
A study conducted by the researchers from French institutes and the Swansea
University examined fields cultivated with winter wheat in France. They observed
that this organic agriculture, produces lower yields, allowed greater weed diversity on
the neighboring conventionally farmed lands. Wild plants are crucial for the survival
of bees, birds and other farmland species, which is the key to maintaining the ecosystem. They are of the opinion that even if 25% of an arable land follows organic
farming methods, it will benefit the whole area.
Benefits provided by an Ecosystem
Regulation of climate
Purification of air
