Promote organic farming
ACCORDING to a study on 'Sustainability Analysis of Ecological and Conventional Agriculture Systems in Bangladesh', ecological agriculture is relatively more sustainable and it can be an economically and environmentally viable alternative to the conventional agriculture system. Organic farming is a system which uses natural (organic) materials to nourish the soil which in turn produces vegetables, fruits and other crops. It does not use pesticides, herbicides and artificial fertilisers and it is the system which had been used until the end of World War II, and which nature has used for millions of years. Inorganic or chemical product is harmful for health and environment as the WHO (World Health Organisation) estimated 5 lakh cases of pesticide poisoning annually and 20,640 deaths globally.
