What are some benefits of organic agriculture?

Some of the main advantages of organic agriculture


(CLASSIFICATION)

They are:
-

The soil in this type of farming is practiced will be benefited because its
production process It is not as debilitating as agriculture Traditional or intensive,
ie, it is reduced drastically erosion and nutrient loss compaction.
(CAUSE
EFFECT)

No synthetic pesticides and fertilizers are used, which they may be substituted by
biopesticides and organic fertilizers. They protect health ecosystem and human.
(CAUSE EFFECT)

It protects the hydrological cycle since through sustainable techniques are able to
reduce the use of water resource and pollution is minimized. (CAUSE EFFECT)

The taste of crops that have been produced in organically it is much more intense
than that of those that have been developed using other methods. Also, consume
much more healthy they do not contain traces of chemicals They are harmful to
our bodies. (DESCRIPTION)
- The life of a plant that has been cultivated organically is much longer, which
allows its years of production more extended. (Satalkar: sf) (DESCRIPTION)
What to do to produce organically?
In agriculture, when we read the words "natural" and "eco- friendly "they may be related to
products organic, however this means that although the production process have used some
techniques farming organically, does not necessarily mean that the product is organic.
(DEFINITION)

For a product to be considered organic must - besides being strictly certifiers out a process
organic. That is, a product must be organic in all their life cycle and not just in its stream
process, or that should even considered what happens before this. (INSTRUCTION)
In order to understand the previous review so easier, we can mention as an example the
chicken organic, this bird is organic not only by the way which has been raised, but also
for the foods they have given to their upbringing; so if corn-fed, this food must also be
cultivated and care organically.(EXEMPLIFICATION)
The certificates are usually issued by agencies certification (private) but in some countries
have created rules that are applied nationwide.
There
are
also
some
requirements
for
this
type
of
production(CLASSIFICATION),
FAO says before this:
The rules for organic production contain requirements related to the period transition of
the farm (the farm must time use organic production methods before to be certified; which
it is usually 2 to 3 years). Among the requirements are the selection seeds and plant
materials; method plant breeding; the maintenance of soil fertility and recycling employee
organic materials; the method of tillage; the water conservation; and pest control, diseases
and weeds. Furthermore, they are established criteria for the use of fertilizers and inputs
for organic pest control and diseases. (2003: 3) (DEFINITION)
What has been done at the political level?

It has responded in various ways to the creciente-Now organic agriculture. One of the first
steps observed in this field was in 1990, when the Senate the United States passed the
Production Act Organic Food (Organic Foods Production Act, for its English name).
(NARRATION)

Costa Rica in Central Asia and Japan, plus Europe and the United States are
among the countries and continents that have taken center stage in what
Concerning organic farming, not only for having passed laws, but because they
follow the requirements that organic products must meet(CLASSIFICATION)
Internationally, but particularly in the United States, several institutions have emerged, for
example, the Rodale Institute is a nonprofit organization that works organic agriculture
through research and disclosure, the institute take increasing importance dynamics to pass laws
to protect farmers and promote increasingly organic agriculture. (EXEMPLIFICATION)
Another tip organizations in this area is the Organic Farming Research Foundation, which
describes itself itself as an organization that seeks to "empower the organic farmer,
"therefore supports any public policy to provide support to organic farmers.
(EXEMPLIFICATION)

The foundation published, for 2011, a report called Agriculture Organic for Health and
Prosperity, to review documents and seek possible ways in which agricultural laws and
public policies to support agriculture organic farmers. (NARRATION)
In its report the Foundation points as follows:
Because of the many benefits of agriculture organic, public policies should support
investment in this expanding sector. The law Agricultural be re-configured and reauthorized before the end of 2012 [...] Currently, the agricultural policy does little to
support the organic farmers and, in some cases, goes against the interests of the same.
[] He government should increase research meets the needs of farmers organic, organic
create integrated programs in all state universities funded with federal funding, and to
create a safety net agriculture and aid programs that work for producers, for the
transition to the organic. (OFRF, 2011) (NARRATION)
What is the next step?
Finally, we must emphasize that the benefits of organic farming are important not only for
the life of humans, but also for a truly development sustainable. That is, organic agriculture
in one way or another benefits form the three components of "triangle sustainability
"social-what, environmental and economic. (DESCRIPTION)
In Costa Rica, as well as in other countries development, organic agriculture is a factor There
are fundamental because in the highest percentage of population living locally and relies on
what it offers its ecosystem, unlike most developed countries where less of the population
is engaged in or dependent of food production. (CONTRAST)
In these developing countries, although not necessarily
Expect larger territories for agriculture organic, live an "eco-friendly" image and
Biodiversity is one of the attractive market major international, so it is essential the
protection of natural resources and the State to take shares at agricultural level, reduce their
impact on the increase of the agricultural frontier and the deterioration of the
biodiversity, which directly affects the health of population and food security (Ocampo,
2012). (CAUSE EFFECT)

Finally, it should be noted that it is imperative that level public policy promote and support
organic agriculture, because we are clearly lacking policies protect this type of production.
Thus promote allow not only the growth of small and medium farmers (Poorest), but also a
lot of people healthier. (ARGUMENTATION)
