Chapter 1: Introduction to Organic Farming and Genetics

●  Define organic farming and its principles.

Organic farming is a method of agriculture that prioritizes environmental sustainability, biodiversity, and the health of both the ecosystem and consumers. It relies on natural processes and substances to maintain soil fertility, control pests and diseases, and produce crops and livestock.

The principles of organic farming include:

1.  Soil health: Organic farming emphasizes the importance of soil health as the foundation of agricultural productivity. Practices such as crop rotation, composting, and the use of green manure help to build and maintain soil fertility without relying on synthetic fertilizers.

2.  Crop diversity: Organic farmers typically cultivate a diverse range of crops to enhance biodiversity and reduce the risk of pest and disease outbreaks. Companion planting and polyculture techniques are often used to mimic natural ecosystems and promote ecological balance.

3.  Ecological pest management: Instead of relying on chemical pesticides, organic farmers employ methods such as biological control, crop rotation, and the use of natural predators to manage pests
