Need of the hour is to promote organic farming: MLA

Yamunanagar MLA Ghanshyam Dass Arora said the need of the hour was to save natural farming and promote organic farming.

Arora on Sunday invited farmers and social workers to his agriculture farm at Karhera village with an aim to promote organic farming in the country. He gave them jaggery and sugar products made from organic farm produce at the farm.

Arora told the social workers and farmers about the benefits of natural farming. He said that if everyone used naturally grown farm products, then they would automatically get rid of many diseases. “We should use fertilisers/khad made of organic products. If we will use organic fertiliser, the yield of our crops will increase significantly and the land will also become fertile,” said MLA Arora. He said the BJP government had started a new initiative to promote organic farming.

“Under the initiative, the government will encourage the farmers to take to organic farming and provide them with necessary training and support,” said Arora. He said that organic farming was not only beneficial for the environment, but it was also beneficial for the farmers. He added that the crops produced under organic farming were free from chemical made fertilisers and pesticides.The visitors included Satpal Bahamani, Ashish Dhiman, Nitish Dua, Rohit Harjai, District Media Incharge of BJP Kapil Manish Garg and BJP leader Abhishek Arora.
