organic vs inorganic farming

1. organic farming

relies on natural processes

avoids synthetic inputs (e.g. chemical fertilizers and pesticides)

prioritizes soil health and environment sustainability

uses natural inputs - compost, manure, cove, etc

relies on pest control methods and attracts beneficial insects

organic farming benefits

offers health benefits due to lower pesticide residues and potentially higher nutrient content in some crops

improves soil health, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and promotes biodiversity

2. inorganic farming

focuses on higher yields and efficiency

uses synthetic fertilizers and pesticides

relies heavily on external resources and processes

may use genetically modified organisms (GMOs)

inorganic farming effects

contributes to water pollution, soil degradation, and reliance on synthetic inputs

increases greenhouse gas emissions, soil erosion, and disruptions to natural balance of nutrients in the soil

Organic farming utilizes natural processes and avoids synthetic inputs like chemical fertilizers and pesticides, while conventional farming relies on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides for higher yields and pest control.

Organic farming prioritizes soil health and environmental sustainability, whereas inorganic farming may have negative impacts on soil and water, as well as potential health risks associated with pesticide residues.

Its rich fiber content (especially soluble fiber) helps regulate your bowels and can ease constipation.

The fiber in okra slows sugar

absorption, which may help stabilize blood sugar levels—great for people with or at risk for diabetes.

Fiber and antioxidants help lower cholesterol and reduce inflammation, which are both great for your heart.

Organic farming: using natural fertilizers and also avoiding synthetic pesticides and chemicals, promotes soil health and biodiversity, as it produces chemical-free so it's safer. And also, it's environmentally friendly and sustainable.

Conventional farming: using chemical fertilizers and synthetic pesticides, and it also increases crop yield and production, requires less manual labor time, and is also suitable for large-scale farming and commercial use. And also may leave chemical residues on crops.
