Taste the Difference: The Rise of CSA Farms in India

CSA in India: A Farm-Fresh Revolution

CSA – CSA stands for “Community Supported Agriculture”, where a farmer grows to produce for a group of people who financially support them.

What does CSA stand for in agriculture?

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), one type of direct marketing, consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes, either legally or inspirit, the community's farm; with the growers and consumers providing mutual support and sharing the risks and benefits of food production.

Does it have a different meaning in India?

The millionaires of India or those who care about the health of themselves and their families are always ready to buy fruits and vegetables directly from farmers at exorbitant prices instead of markets and malls. Not only this, but they also invest in their finances. For example, I help them in delivering their fruits, vegetables, herbs, and minerals to these people in Kashmir and abroad, in return, they buy these things at exorbitant prices.

The Science Behind Pyrethrum's Insecticidal Power

Pyrethrum is a natural insecticide made from the dried flower heads of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium and Chrysanthemum coccineum. 
Pyrethrum: Your Natural Ally in Pest Control

1  These plants are also known as pyrethrum daisies.   
Pyrethrum plant (Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium)

They are perennial plants with a daisy-like appearance and white petals. The flowers contain insecticidal compounds called pyrethrins, which are effective against a wide range of pests. Pyrethrum is considered a safe and environmentally friendly insecticide because it breaks down quickly in the environment and is not harmful to mammals or birds.

They are native to the Balkans and Caucasus regions.
They are commercially cultivated in several countries, including Kenya, Australia, China, Uganda, Kashmir and Tanzania.
They are relatively easy to grow and can be propagated from seeds or cuttings.
They prefer full sun and well-drained soil.
They are drought-tolerant and do not require much watering.
They are attractive to pollinators such as bees and butterflies.
