But in the past five decades there are so many changes, especially after second world war. There is a big increase in population growth and in order to meet the population food requirement scientist have found and established so many ways for the people to follow in agriculture. Either in the hybridization of seeds or the chemical fertilizers and pesticides have become necessary to improve productivity as well as to protect the crop from the pest attack.
In the way they adopted, farmers due to their ignorance or illitracy especially in India used excessive applications of these chemicals on the crop with a greed to get more crop than the others. They failed to notice the ill effects of the chemicals which they are applying. It is leaving some of the residues on the crop and its produce the same is coming to the human beings and it is doing much harm to the living beins whom ever are consuming this food.
After using the soil for the same crops by failing the crop rotation and other irrelevent procedure in the field and majority of the farmers failed to take into account what is to be done for the benefit of the crop as well as society made much harm in the long run.
But it is the high time and every body have to take into account the ill effects of the improper way of doing things and how these unaffordable methods are affecting the health of society and we have to think about the future generations.
The best practices only ensures the healthy living of the future generation and we have to make them to live healthy live and impart best practices to have a healthy food.
Health is only possible with the healthy produce through the farming and agricultre.

The best methods of the farming should be communicated between the farming communities around the world. Since the radical changes in the communication world will also helpful for the educated farmers. They can share their experiences and big discussions and debates will raise the farmers knowledge levels and some will venture into innovative methods by absorbing the knowledge which they have seen and here and it will become a great boon for one and all in the farming community.
This is the high time we need to do something for the betterment of the agriculture. Only ethical players and who like to live for the welfare of the people will do the maximum for this industry
