Population growth and climate change challenge our food and farming systems and provide arguments for an increased intensification of agriculture. A promising option is eco-functional intensification through organic farming, an approach based on using and enhancing natural resources and processes to secure and improve agricultural productivity, while minimizing negative environmental impacts. A new strategy of promoting eco friendly farming is through the modification of the present systems of farming in the area of soil nutrient restoration to encourage the use of organic materials, termed organic farming. Although organic farming is an important topic for society, at the Indian level there have been few achievements so far. Despite its constant increase, the demand for organic food in India is outweighing the development of this sector. Organic farming is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and the people. It relies on ecological processes, biodiversity and cycles adapted to local conditions, rather than the use of inputs with adverse effects. Organic farming combines tradition, innovation and science to benefit the shared environment and promote fair relationships and a good quality of life for all involved. The desire for a sustainable agriculture is universal, yet agreement on how to progress towards it remains elusive. Sustainability is considered in relation to organic farming a sector growing rapidly in many countries. The study identified individuals focusing on specific sectors encompassing the whole of India.
