Question

which is the latest change adopted by farmers and in which region ? has this change brought about positive results

Answer 1

In Punjab farmers have adopted natural farming. It involves shunning the use of chemicals, fertilizers and pesticides from the market. Instead homemade potions are used which keep the soil pest free. Practices like mixed cropping and mulching help to maintain its nutrient balance and bring down water consumption by 40%.

This method has helped the farmers to get a better yield at cheaper rates. They get much higher prices for their crop.
