From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Organic farming is a form of agriculture that relies on ecosystem management and attempts to reduce or eliminate external agricultural inputs, especially synthetic ones. It is a holistic production management system that promotes and enhances agro-ecosystem health, including biodiversity, biological cycles,
soil and biological activity.

Some fertilizers contain chemicals that have adverse effect on the human body. Problems can range from minor digestive disorders to cancer. Still, fertilizers are used to help crops grow more in short time, plus provide them with compunds that are not usually found in organic farming.
Organiuc farming would be basically natural farming, where the crops are sown with naturally made and available compounds. It is slow though very effective in preventing many diseases.

fertilizers are not good on humans that is why they tell you to wash off your veggies and fruits. they have been linked to a bunch of cancers and other health related problems. and organic farming is when they don't use fertilizers except for natural ones like manure.
