Organic farming enhances profit as the cost of inputs is reduced due to most efficient use of resources. And as the cost of production is reduced, it is a means of women empowerment and poverty alleviation.

However, the major reason that is hampering the large scale adoption of organic farming is that it reduces crop yields in short term.
