Avartansheel Kheti
Avartansheel Kheti, also known as Regenerative or Cyclical Farming, is an agricultural approach that emphasizes sustainable, eco-friendly practices designed to restore and enhance soil health, biodiversity, and overall ecosystem balance. This method is gaining popularity among farmers and environmental advocates for its potential to address issues like soil degradation, water scarcity, and climate change.
Key Principles of Avartansheel Kheti :
1. Self-Reliance : Promotes independence from chemical inputs by focusing on locally available resources, reducing the reliance on costly synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
2. Ecological Balance : Encourages farming methods that mimic natural ecosystems, thereby reducing environmental impact and promoting biodiversity.
3. Value Addition and Employment : Focuses on creating value-added products from agricultural produce, thus generating more income for farmers and employment opportunities in rural areas.
4. Food Security and Malnutrition : Strives to produce diverse, nutrient-rich crops that support community health and food security.
Goals and Benefits:
– Soil Health Improvement : Uses organic compost, green manures, crop rotation, and no-till practices to enhance soil structure and fertility.
– Water Conservation : Implements efficient irrigation methods and promotes rainwater harvesting to conserve water, especially important in water-scarce regions.
– Community Empowerment : Through workshops and training, Avartansheel Kheti helps farmers become more resilient, knowledgeable, and economically empowered.
– Environmental Resilience : Builds farming systems that are resilient to environmental stresses like drought, pests, and extreme weather, making farms more adaptable to climate change.
