Organic Farming: Approach

Xiao, Xinqing. Sustainable Agriculture with Self-Powered Wireless Sensing. Agriculture. (22, January
2025) Self-charging capabilities, efficient energy management, and cost-effective policies are some of
the main advantages of incorporating technologies into agricultural systems. These technologies, which
improve productivity and encourage self-sufficiency within a sensor network connected to the cloud, are
essential for small and medium-sized farms.

Sørensen, Laura & Blix Germundsson, Lisa & Hansen, Stine & Rojas, Claudia & Kristensen, Niels. What
Skills Do Agricultural Professionals Need in the Transition towards a Sustainable Agriculture? A
Qualitative Literature Review. Sustainability. (08, December 2021) The study identified five key skill
categories: technical and subject-specific knowledge, lifelong learning, knowledge integration, building
and maintaining networks, and systems perspective, highlighting their practical implications and
potential sustainable approaches.

Efstratios & Paltaki, Dimitra, Aikaterini & Lazaridou, Chrysanthi & Michailidis, Anastasios & Lioutas,
Evagelos & Bournaris, Thomas & Loizou, (10, November 2023) In order to encourage a responsible
transition to digital agriculture, the study looks at the digitalization abilities of prospective agricultural
advisers, identifying gaps and the necessity of a college education. It offers a competency framework for
evaluating present and potential advisers' proficiency in digitalization-related areas.

Raihana & Singh, Parmeet & Baba, Zahoor & Fayaz, Shayista & Kanth. (July 23, 2024) Conservation
agriculture is a farming method that promotes a range of plant species, minimal soil disturbance, and
permanent soil cover. It aims to improve long-term agricultural productivity, support the optimal use of
water and nutrients, and strengthen biodiversity and natural biological processes. It is based on three
principles: reducing soil disturbance, applying organic biomass, and crop diversification.

Ar K,S (2024 A revolunologies to improve sustainability, efficiency, and productivity. Big data analytics,
GPS, remote sensing, and the Internet of Things are important advances. Farmers may enhance farm
management techniques, maximize input use, and track crop variability with the use of these
technology. Precision irrigation systems, automated machinery, and variable rate fertilizer application
are a few examples of applications. However, there are drawbacks, such as the requirement for
technical know-how, expensive upfront expenses, restricted accessibility, and complicated data
administration. The use of PA in environmental stewardship, crop management, and resource
optimization is examined in this article.

Fadiji, A. E., (2024) Agricultural productivity is crucial for global food security, but chemical pesticides
and fertilizers have environmental impacts. Biofertilizers like microbial inoculants and plant growth-
promoting microbes (PGPMs) are promising tools for sustainable growth. PGPMs can improve plant
health, regulate hormones, and suppress pathogens. However, synthetic agrochemicals have low market
share due to issues like consistency, efficacy, high manufacturing costs, and poor quality control.
Abbasi R (2022) Agriculture is crucial for food security, but as population grows, demand for agri-food
demands shift to smart farming practices, or agriculture 4.0. This study aims to advance agriculture 4.0
by examining digital technologies in the agricultural sector and conducting a systematic literature review
using the Protocol.

Antle J et al. (2017) the author discusses the need for a new generation of agricultural system models,
data, and knowledge products to support science-based policy and sustainable management of
agricultural landscapes. It proposes a demand-driven, forward-looking approach to designing next-
generation models that integrate human behavior, heterogeneity, and dynamics, and address key
challenges in crop systems, livestock production, pests and diseases, precision management, and
economic and social dimensions.

According to Gowher et al. (2025), the overview focuses on the diversity of agroforestry species found in
the research area and their numerous uses by local communities rather than delving further into
conservation strategies or interventions for the threatened species. Without additional information in
the submitted file, the summary cannot provide any information on recommended conservation efforts
for the endangered agroforestry tree species.

Agroforestry is a method that encourages efficient use of resources by integrating woody perennials
with livestock, arable crops, or feed (s. Fahad, 2022). It provides a home for epigenic organisms and
enhances soil fertility and quality. Agroforestry also reduces runoff, captures rainwater, and aids in
erosion control. It ensures food security while enhancing agricultural resilience, yields, and livelihoods.

Dayane Camelo (2021) According to the study, in a tropical semiarid area, cactus monoculture and
agroforestry systems both raised soil C and N levels. Because tree legume metabolic stressors were
reduced at the conclusion of the wet season, microbial carbon was higher in agroforestry systems. As
the wet season came to an end, the differences were more noticeable..

Jose, S., and Rankoth, L. (2018). Feeding habits, population growth, and environmental factors like ocean
acidification and climate change are all contributing to the rapid changes in global biodiversity.
Deforestation and agricultural intensification are two of the primary causes of biodiversity loss.
Agroforestry (AF) can contribute to biodiversity conservation by providing habitat, protecting species,
reducing conversion rates, increasing connectivity, and maintaining biological variety. Benefits have
been demonstrated in both tropical and temperate regions.
Dollinger, J. (2018) states that tree-based multifunctional land use strategies are better than
monoculture agriculture since trees and crops complement each other's resources. Agroforestry
systems increase crop nutrients while reducing the requirement for external fertilizer, and plant
diversity improves ecosystem functioning and productivity. Intercropping systems boost grain yields,
income, and nutrition, and bamboo plants can help alley cropping systems.
