Applying modern and ancient management principles to improve sustainability and profitability of organic sector at field level.
Abstract
Agricultural sector throughout the world is faced with more challenges at field level with rapid depletion of available resources. But the current developments in utilisation of available resources are leading to unmanageable and irrecoverable state mostly in developing countries. Organic agriculture promises a better future at all levels of sustainability but its conversion and uptake rate is very low at global level due to the slow recovery time at field level and profitability at socioeconomic level. Research at field level shows that applying modern management principles and planning to optimize the organic strategies at field level increases the sustainability and profitability at all levels.
