| What does organic farming aim to rely on? | to rely on crop rotation, green manure, compost, bio control of pest | ORGANIC FARMING 27. Since, moringa is used for neutraceutical, it would be essential to use minimum amount of pesticide and chemical. Organic farming, which aims to rely on crop rotation, green manure, compost, bio control of pest is becoming popular among health conscious population. In moringa cultivation, organic farming could be adopted through growing of intercrops for incorporation in soil, vermicomposting for meeting nutrient needs and integrated management of pest to produce residue free fruits. Recycling of farm waste, use of micro-organism and vermin wash would be desirable. The system must have animals for organic compost and only approved chemical should be used. The period is three year to get certification, thus these practices has to start from the time planting is taken up ensuring that planted seedlings or graft have been organically grown. | 162 | definition | 1.000 | Organic farming, which aims to rely on crop rotation, green manure, compost, bio control of pest is becoming popular among health conscious population. | 15 | page=15,ocr=1 | 0.700 | valid |

| What is the role of All India Coordinated Research Projects? | region-specific technologies are made available | Through All India Coordinated Research Projects, region-specific technologies are made available. Resultantly, production of horticultural produce increased from 96.95 million tonnes in 1991-92 to 214 million tonnes in 2008-09. it has to reach to 300.00 million tonnes in 2011-12 and 360.00 million tones at the end of 2020. Past achievements indicated that achieving the target is difficult but not impossible. This will need concerted efforts of research and development. 6.
