What is the concept of organic agriculture? What's the difference between organic agriculture and ecological agriculture?

Organic planting is a planting method that uses natural raw materials completely in the process of plant growth, including soil improvement, fertilization and pest control. Individuals and business organizations can grow organically. Among them, the organic food produced by commercial organizations will only be processed in a small amount, and there is almost no chemical protective agent or other additives. These foods are also called healthy foods.

The basic connotation of eco-agriculture in China is to design, combine, adjust and manage the systematic engineering system of agricultural production and rural economy according to the ecological principles and laws of eco-economy. It requires combining the development of grain with the production of various cash crops, combining the development of field planting with forestry, animal husbandry, sideline production and fishery, combining the development of large-scale agriculture with secondary and tertiary industries, utilizing the essence of traditional agriculture and modern scientific and technological achievements, artificially designing ecological projects, developing in harmony with the environment, utilizing and protecting resources, forming two virtuous cycles of ecology and economy, and unifying the three major benefits of economy, ecology and society.

The scope and breadth of ecological agriculture and organic agriculture are different. The products of ecological agriculture must be organic agricultural products, while the products of organic agriculture are not necessarily ecological agricultural products. Comparatively speaking, the projects of eco-agriculture must be complex, comprehensive and systematic, which are stricter and more complicated than those of organic agriculture. Ecological agriculture requires saving resources, protecting the environment and recycling.
