Prime Minister Narendra Modi is actively encouraging farmers across India to adopt natural farming techniques, emphasizing a 'one acre, one season' approach. His recent visit to the South India Natural Farming Summit in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, highlighted a significant shift in farmers' confidence and commitment to sustainable agricultural practices. Many individuals, including those leaving corporate careers, are returning to their roots, inspired by the potential of natural farming.
The summit showcased innovative efforts in natural farming, featuring farmers managing diverse crops and livestock, and preserving native rice varieties. Prime Minister Modi lauded government initiatives like the National Mission on Natural Farming, which supports thousands of farmers. These efforts, coupled with financial schemes like the Kisan Credit Card and PM-Kisan, bolster the transition to natural farming.

This approach lowers input costs and builds resilience against climate change. The Prime Minister also noted the significant involvement of women farmers in this movement and encouraged citizens to explore opportunities within natural farming, fostering a productive and sustainable agricultural future.
