Maybe I don't understand the question. I thought organic farming meant more local outlets, so less transportation, which means less greenhouse gas.

Good question? Do you think organic agriculture will be sustainable under the expected climate change and overall change of the farming system? I really wonder about some of the comments globaly associating the climate change solution with a single simple action like organic farming etc. The consequences of climate change are complex that need the integration of many actions! I sometimes worried about the fighting for single factors!

I'm so splendid to read this insightful concept from Dr. Szaniszlo Berczi

THE WORLD HAS BEEN REARRANGED!!!

========================================================

Mr. Alem Redda, you are right in considering small-scale agriculture as an idealized example of sustainability. That was the case in Hungary in Tanya, the farming system in old times. A complex economy and sustainable production. No pollution, but circular processing of the products. The farmer took care of his farming unit keeping livestock, tilling the fields, growing crops, and even without selling anything on market, he could keep his family in good conditions. But the world had been rearranged toward the cities where a large-scale productive industry gives the life conditions with the transport of energy forms, selling the necessary goods, and requesting the sustainable care of the environment and ecology. It is a hard task to prevent any new disturbance of the balance between the organized life and the new challenges. That is, why we are thinking of the expansion of the cibóvilized life (the city life) to the bottom of the sea, on the shelves, where totally new arrangement of the earlier knowledge is requested. But rearrangement of the knowledge of the sustainable economy is also requested, even if we remain on the surface of the Earth.

Thank you Dr. Szaniszlo Berczi

Dear Dr. Alem Redda Thanks for your letter. May I extend the sequence of hierarchy levels betweeen Tanya and the global scale ecology of sustainability. I wrote a paper in 2009 (and also a booklet, in Hungarian) ont he environment and technology matrix. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/253286335_Systems_Woven_by_Two_Flux-Subsystems_One_of_Them_is_Planetary_Concise_Atlas_of_the_Solar_System_12_Space_Science_and_Technology

There the fluxes of the natural environment (air, water, heat, ground, other streams) are interwoven by town technologies (industries of energy, material good production, water circulation and gas circulation systems in a town, waste collecting and any industrial scale activities). The matrix gives an overview of the society operations (technologies) with the environmental processes, both are considered synchronously within the existing complex town system. Of course, the main processes are emphasized only. But sittin gin their chair in the two sides of the matrix, industry people and environmental protection people can discuss the problems at the same chartoon. The scale of the chartoon can be transformed. Even the Tanya can be realized in this matrix. And the main reason, what is why that was sent to a Lunar and Planetary Conference: this matrix is essentially the plan of a space probe, where the technologies are MEASURING technologies, and the environemnt is ont he MOON, or MARS. Thanks for your question. With best regards: Szaniszlo Berczi

Dear Dr. Szaniszlo Berczi ,

thank you so much for your organic mind. WELL NOTED!!!

I wish I were your student. Dear Dr., please continue to write things like this.

STAY BLESSED!!!

Alem

Dear Dr. Alem Redda Thanks for your appretiation.

It is a pleasure that you find it interesting what the environmental-technological matrix teaches us. This matrix summarized how the experimental space probe model built by students, can be used in order to find out measurements. NASA appretiates teacher’s works for students and that is why several such experiments wer on t he program of the LPSC conferences. For example our model rover HUSAR were used to measure soil’s pH.

Organic farming will ensure that carbon that is in manure and compost is taken back to plants. This is better than commercial fertilizers that require energy during their manufacturing processes.

interesting question

Emission will be reduced to a great extent and moreover the toxic effects of chemical fertilizer will be reduced

We are also quantifying the results

Lots of justifications can be raised; check them from this link:

Interesting question.

I would say first we have to tackle the root cause of increased abiotic stress by reducing the use of chemical fertilizer in agricultural lands. Instead, we can promote the use of Bio-fertilizers which are organic, and help soil's micro-organisms to grow which can result in increased crop yield.

As we know it, agriculture is the primary source of food for the world population and also the basis of the economy in most countries. It is known that climate change is a critical universal challenge that affects agriculture which in turn has an impact on all aspects of food security which includes food availability, accessibility, utilization, and food systems stability. Organic farming that embraces natural recourses reduces the external input, which is seen to be a way forward to tackling climate change. Organic farming is also part of Agroecology, which is among the leading strategies for sustainable agriculture offering opportunities to create sustainable food security and economic growth.

If I may, would like to share a review paper I co-wrote that highlights some of the Agroecological practices that can address climate change

Revamping Ecosystem Services through Agroecology—The Case of Cereals

https://www.mdpi.com/1018486

Organic agriculture is almost zero side effect to the environment and for social and can help the boom sustainably and friendly.

Going back to basic (organically way) of farming could help lessen the impact of climate change or abiotic stress. Continuously doing research on organic fertilizers and biopesticides could lead to a healthier and environmental friendly production system in the long run.

We can take it (Organic agriculture) as simple, easily manageable tool/technology to fight climate change.

I agree with the majority, organic agriculture can be a viable tool, but it is necessary to consider other aspects, viability, extension of the crop, costs, etc.

I agree with organic agriculture, and I'm studying rice crab co cropping，and I want combination of the organic agriculture and crab co cropping， maybe found something about the relationship between the climate change with these. Do everyone have any interesting suggestions
