Atmospheric pollution, pollution due to factory exhausts, water pollution, noise pollution, the disturbance caused by marine biology due to disposal of nuclear waste in oceans, the effect of radiation on human physiology, the adverse effect on soil fertility, productivity and quality of the produce due to chemical based modern farming systems, acidic rains and the drastic changes in the seasons etc. have all become global human problem which needs immediate attention. It is well proved fact that Vedas have all the solutions to any human problem then why not to search the solution of above mentioned wold wide problems in Vedas which have put the present civilization in danger.

Thanks are due to Mahanubhao Shri Madhavji Potdar Saheb who invented agnihotra practices from the Vedas during his resuscitating work of Vedas.

Agnihotra is the basic form of yajnya which is known as science of bio-energy given through the Vedas. It is tunned to the biological rhythm of sunrise/sunset. It is the process of purification of atmosphere through the agency of fire. It is a holistic system, powerful in subtle way and positively result oriented.

The charisma of agnihotra is attracting people everywhere. Innumerable people all over the world are practising agnihotra daily and this number in unimaginably growing larger every day. Agnihotra entertaines no barriers, geographical or cultural, may be the heights Andes mountains in South America or the Deccan plateau in India or the most modern and technologically advanced United States of America or countries like Poland, Brazil, Peru and continents of Australia, Europe, Africa everywhere, it has been received as the most conferting energizing and reliable instruments to counter the evils of pollution.

Since chemical dependent farming has started giving negative response. Organic farming, Ecological Farming. Natural Farming. Rishi Krishi, Biodynemic Farming and Agnihotra Farming have gained momentum globely which has spread over about 23 mh area. In India around 2.25 lac hectares area is alread covered under organic cultivation which includes cotton, coffee, tea basmati rice, medicinal and aromatic rops. A number of possibl attentive farming systems are summarized as under.

Organic Farming

As per USDA, 1980 report, organic farming can be defined as "Production system which avoids or largely excludes the use of synthetically compounded fertilizers, pesticides, growth regulators and livestock feed additives". This system rely upon crop rotation, crop residues, animal manures, legumes, green manures off-farm organic wastes, mechanical cultivation, mineral bearing rocks and aspects of biological pest control to maintain soll productivity and tilth to supply plant nutrients and to control insects weeds and other pests.

Natural Farming

It was developed in Japan in 1930 by Mokichi Okada whe later formed the Mokichi Okada Association (MOA). Natural Farming parallels organic farming in many ways but include special emphasis on soil health through composts rather than organic fertilizers, Kyusei Natural Farming, a branch group emphasizes use of microbial preparation in addition to traditional natural farming.

Ecological Farming

It is labour intensive system which is based on techniques of crop cultivation, which involves all attention to promote renewable source of energy (drought animal power), electrical energy from garbage disposal and biogas from organic wastes. It also involves water use efficiency through conjunctive use of rain, tank. underground well and river water. Practices such as those continue to improve crop productivity, i.e., genetic and agronomic i.e., hybrid vigour, gene pyramiding, multiple cropping. Integrated plant Nutrient management (IPNM) and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) are the essential components of ecological farming.

Rishi Krishi

This system is based on Mr. Deshpandey of Maharastra who is promoting it for 10 years. About 500 farmers in the state are now following the system for crop production. In this system the following aids are used to maintain soil fertility and crop yield.

Angara : Bhomi Sanskar is being performed to make the soil fertile, wherein 15 kg rhizosphere soil of banyan tree (Ficus bengalensis) Vat vriksh is broadcasted on acre of land. It has lot of earthworms and other beneficial microbes which improves the soil fertility.

Amrit Pani : Amrit Pani is prepared by mixing 20 kg cow dung, 1/2 kg honey, 1/4 kg ghee. All ingredients are mixed and kept over night. This is being used to treat the seeds and spraying over the standing crops.

Punch Gavya : It is basically consist of five products from cow i.e., dung (5 kg) urine (5 litre), milk (3 litre), curd (3 litre) and ghee (1 kg), suitably mixed along with sugar, cane juice, tender coconut water, ripe banana and toddy. It is incubated for 15 days and stirred daily. Mixture is diluted in 1:10 ratio with water, filtered, mixed and sprayed on the crop. This mixture is wonderful tonic to promote vegetative and reproductive growth of plants. A group of farmers in Tamil Nadu are practising this for cultivation of field and horticultural crops.

Bio-Dynamic Farming : Pfeffer (1984) defined biodynamic farming as working with energy which create and maintain life. It involves certain principles and practices for healthy soil. healthy plant and healthful food for human beings and feed for animals. In this system energies from cosmos, earth, cow and plant are systematically and synergistically harnessed.
