The goal of the program was to give farmers the resources they needed to grow vegetables, particularly leafy greens, without the use of pesticides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best vegetable varieties, including palak, chaurai, nenua, taruyi, lauki, and Kohara, as well as bio-fertilizers, were distributed to the farmers for growing vegetables in kitchen gardens or on rooftops during a farmer meeting and training program held on Monday in Bahdurpur village in the Chaubepur area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project, “Developing Low-Cost Technology for Organic Vegetable Production Through Vertical Farming,” was sponsored by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), and Dr. Jay Prakash Verma, senior assistant professor at the Institute of Environment and Sustainable Development at BHU, organized the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The program intends to encourage farmers to grow vegetables without the use of chemicals, such as green leafy vegetables, which are a source of vitamins and foods that strengthen the immune system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past 15 years, Dr. Verma has studied endophytes, biofertilizers, decomposers, and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in order to develop potential microbial inoculants for Uttar Pradesh’s various crop output. From soil samples, they had collected from the rhizosphere in Azamgarh, Jaunpur, Mirzapur, Chanduauli, Varanasi, Allahabad, Sonbhadra, Lucknow, Pratapgarh, Meerut, Balllia, Ghazipur, Gorakhpur, and other places, Soil bacteria were isolated by Dr. Verma and his team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following separation, the properties that encourage plant growth were evaluated for the creation of efficient and indigenous microbial inoculants as potential biofertilizers for the growth of a variety of crops. Dr. Verma talked about kitchen gardening and composting kitchen waste to make it into compost that can be utilized for vegetable production in one’s own garden or in any plastic tub in order to produce the most vegetables and green leafy vegetables possible using a vertical farming system. Producers can cultivate crops both inside and outside in this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is Organic Farming?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As much as is practical, organic farming relies on crop rotation, crop residues, animal manures, off-farm organic waste, mineral grade rock additives, and biological systems of nutrient mobilization and plant protection rather than using synthetic inputs like fertilizers, pesticides, hormones, feed additives, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
