Answer
Importance of Organic Farming is the following :
Organic farming promotes the use of crop rotations and cover crops and encourages balanced host/predator relationships.
Organic residues and nutrients produced on the farm are recycled back to the soil. Cover crops and composted manure are used to maintain soil organic matter and fertility.
Preventative insect and disease control methods are practiced, including crop rotation, improved genetics, and resistant varieties. Integrated pest and weed management, and soil conservation systems are valuable tools on an organic farm.
