Conventional means of farming leads to the growth and production of vegetables that are tainted with chemical pesticides and insecticides. It is important to know where you food is coming from and who is producing it.

Organic farming is not just a trend, but an important way to ensure that the vegetables and other foods you consume are not hazardous to your health. Therefore, learning about organic vegetables and organic farming is vital to help maintain a healthy lifestyle.

This article discusses:

• Conventional Farming
• Organic Farming
• Organic Bug Spray

Conventional Farming

Conventional farming is when farmers use chemicals to alter or protect the vegetables and other crops they are growing. This is the most common method of farming in America today and across the world. It is more economical for most farmers to spray their crops with pesticides and chemicals to protect them from disease, insects, and help increase their shelf life.

Many farmers are unaware of the downsides of the practices they use every day to mass produce food for America, when they could produce organic foods without as many downsides. Conventional farmers do the following to successful grow vegetables and other crops:

• Apply chemical fertilizers to help their plants and vegetables grow quicker and healthier
• They spray chemical insecticides and pesticides to reduce the amount of pests and diseases that affect their crops
• Conventional farmers use chemical herbicides to help manage weeds on their property
• These farmers often give animals antibiotics, medications, and growth hormones to prevent disease and help them grow

Organic Farming

Farming with organic practices in mind will go a long way towards growing healthier and stronger vegetables and crops. Organic farmers use methods already found in nature and alter them to be more successful in yielding crops. Organic farming yields vegetables and other foods that are richer in nutrients and free of foreign chemicals.

Organic dairy producers and other farmers that raise animals use techniques that gain the same results as conventional farming, but use natural methods to do so. It comes down to the effort and the economic standing of the farmer. Some farmers may not have the assets to go completely organic, but they can still help.

By changing at least some of your practices will help reduce the amount of negative side effects conventional farming creates. Organic farmers do the following to successfully grow vegetables and other crops:

• Apply organic fertilizers, like manure or compost, to help your plants and vegetables grow quick and healthier
• Use EcoSMART organic insecticides and fungicide to reduce the amount of pests and diseases that affect your crops
• Rotate your crops, hand weed, and mulch to help manage weeds
• Feed your animals organic feed, let them roam outdoors, allow for a balanced diet, and clean living spaces often
