The contemporary crisis of Indian agriculture is evident with the epidemic of farmers’ suicides due to unpayable debt and the return of hunger and starvation for the first time since 1942. The shift to ecological farming has become necessary for renewal of the earth’s vital resources, for lowering costs of production and for increasing food.
