    Solution

    Natural farming is defined as a “chemical- free farming and livestock based”. North East India has traditionally been organic, and the consumption of chemicals is far less than the rest of the country. Sikkim is the first state in the world which became a fully organic state. Natural farming is in sync with the Sustainable Development Goal-2. Participatory Guarantee System (PGS) is a process of certifying organic products produced by natural farming. It ensures that their production takes place in accordance with laid-down quality standards.
