Abstract

Increasing health awareness among consumers globally has resulted in the shift towards organic farming all across the globe. Reliance on chemical components to increase crop yield, a negative fallout of the industrial revolution, has resulted in serious side effects among consumers of different food products. This has encouraged a shift towards the organic mode of production among the cultivators. In India, before the green revolution, farmers were basically dependent on natural products for agriculture. It is certainly not a matter of exaggeration that other members of the Sikkimese society besides farmers have benefitted from organic farming. The consumers are being provided with healthy organic products which will enable them to enjoy good health. Due to the non polluting nature of organic farming, the environment does not have to bear the ill effects of pollution.
