Agriculture sector contributes a major portion in gross production of India. In spite of this, agriculture today is finding itself in increasing difficulties. The adverse impact of agriculture based on synthetic fertilizers and herbicides is visible in the degradation of soil fertility, quality of food, taste of food and so on. Organic agriculture may prove to be a boon to curb these adverse effects. There is dearth of information on inputs of organic farming in Uttarakhand in general, and in the plain and hill regions of Uttarakhand in specific. Hence, the present exploratory study was conceived with the broad objective of building authentic data based on input aspect used in organic farming by farmers in Uttarakhand.
