- मध्यप्रदेश के पन्ना शहर से लगी ग्राम पंचायत पुराना पन्ना के गांव रानीपुर टगरा के किसान संत कुमार कुशवाहा अपने 2 एकड़ के खेत में केंचुआ खाद व जैविक कीटनाशकों का उपयोग कर सब्जी उगाते हैं। संत कुशवाहा बताते हैं, "ज्यादातर बाजार पहुंचते ही हमारी सारी सब्जियां बिक जाती हैं। कुछ ग्राहक तो ऐसे हैं जो नियमित रूप से खेत में आकर मनपसंद सब्जियां खरीद कर ले जाते हैं।"
- कुशवाहा परिवार के मुताबिक सब्जियों की खेती उन्हें औसतन हर महीने एक लाख से डेढ़ लाख की आय होती है पिछले कुछ वर्षों से भारत में जैविक खेती और जैविक उत्पादों की मांग तो बढ़ी है, लेकिन जमीन पर अभी जैविक खेती प्रारंभिक स्तर पर नजर आती है। केंद्रीय कृषि एवं किसान कल्याण मंत्रालय के अनुसार मार्च 2020 तक देशभर में 2.78 मिलियन हेक्टेयर में जैविक खेती हो रही थी जो देश के कुल बुवाई रकबे 140.1 मिलियन हेक्टेयर का करीब 2 फीसदी ही है।
