| Abstract: | The aim of the current review is to gather information from both online and offline sources regarding contribution of rural women to enhance organic and sustainable farming. In today’s context, One of the most significant sources of renewable wealth in the world is indigenous agriculture. Organic farming is on the rise, and women play a vital role in that. Women in rural India are important to the progress of the rural economy. They play multiple roles as farmers, wage earners, and entrepreneurs. Women also care for the well-being of their family members and are responsible for providing food and care to the children and the elderly. In rural communities, agriculture and allied sector is the primary source of livelihood that includes 80 percent of all economically active women, out of which 33 percent constitute agricultural labour force and 48 percent are self employed farmers. Rural women are engaged at all levels of agricultural value chain; i.e., production- pre-harvest, post-harvest processing, packaging, marketing to increase productivity in agriculture. Organic farming is an agricultural method that uses fertilizers of natural origin. Different kind of natural products like compost manure, green manure, and bone meal etc. It originated early in the 20th century in reaction to rapidly changing farming practices. Organic farming continues to be developed by various organizations today. Use of bio pesticides (Biological pest control), mixed cropping and the nurturing of insect predators are encouraged. Organic and sustainable farming has the potential to create new structures that actively work towards achieving women’s empowerment and protecting the use of indigenous knowledge. The present review complies the recent trends regarding various roles played by the women to enhance organic and sustainable farming. |
