Generic Farming and Organic Farming

Generic Farming and Organic Farming

Farming in which as much use is made of the land as possible by

growing crops close together or by growing several crops in a year or

by using large amounts of fertilizers.

"As farming has become more specialised and practices like manuring

have gone, so the level of organic matter in the soil has decreased,"

said Dick Thompson, a development officer.

"That causes a hard cap to form on soil, which prevents water from

seeping into the ground. If we can control water before it reaches

rivers we will have a chance of success against the floods."

Water is the essential element which gives life to the world we live

in. If we raise the quality of water, we get better final product,

color, aroma, smell, yield or animal metabolism. In the intensive

farming, the irrigation water generally contains high values of

bicarbonates and other chemical elements that influence the pH,

raising it to high levels, which induces deprivation of nutrients.

Sodium, is the other element that produces disintegration of the

organic matter and with it, all type of pro-blems of a physical

nature. As a consequence, harm and deterioration of yield and quality

of farming is pro-duced. Furthermore we can signal the grand

inconvenience and problem of scale in pumps, piping, water jets and

the irrigation equipment, caused by the use of normal irrigation

water. .

Furthermore farmers face big problems caused by scale formation in

pumps, pipes, water nozzles and in the irrigation equipment, which are

caused by using normal, not-treated magnetically water.

Organic

=======

Organic farming can be defined as an approach to agriculture where the

aim is to create integrated, humane, environmentally and economically

sustainable agricultural production systems. Maximum reliance is

placed on locally or farm-derived renewable resources and the

management of self-regulating ecological and biological processes and

interactions in order to provide acceptable levels of crop, livestock

and human nutrition, protection from pests and diseases, and an

appropriate return to the human and other resources employed.
