Amrut Krishi a farming system/science, is a way of farming, which while incorporating certain good aspects of organic farming, goes much beyond organic farming both in terms of philosophy and science. Some basic practices:

- The land is not tilled or ploughed

- No use of pesticides (even organic pesticides)

- No violence on insect or animals, not even using repellents

- Efficient utilization of sunlight and water

Nowadays we see an increasing number of people who willingly give up modern city life in favour of an alternate lifestyle. In this process, some form small communities where likeminded people can live a mutually fulfilling life. Among these communities, the core concept usually is – self sufficiency. This self sufficiency is clearly possible only by co-existential living with nature, people and eco-system around. Until there is dependence on any external resource, creation of any new community based on alternative lifestyle may not be possible. We feel that such co existential living with the eco system around us is possible only if we incorporate farming as the main activity, as a way of living itself.

Wherever new civilizations or communes have developed across the world, it is always agriculture based. But we see that in modern times, due to commercialization of agriculture, distortions have occurred in these civilizations/communes. These distortions can only be eliminated by incorporating farming in daily life rather than considering it as a commercial activity.

In India, there are many farmers who are using and studying traditional systems of farming. There are others who are studying modern methods of organic/natural farming. But there is a lack of information and facilities for learning organic / natural farming in an organised way. At Krishi Teerth Bajwada, we invite people who are earnest about farming as a means of livelihood which is not in conflict with the rest of the ecosystem. We want Krishi Teerth to be such a place where anyone can come, stay and learn how they can live a life of mutual co-operation and co-existence.

What is Krishi Teerth?

Krishi Teerth is an ashram run by Malpani trust, where Amrut Krushi is being practised for the last five years. Currently there is one family permanently residing at the ashram living an agriculture-centred lifestyle. The ashram has seven acres of land where different experiments are being conducted for optimising farm production with zero external inputs. These experiments are specifically beneficial for marginal farmers and small land holders.

The ashram is also a study facility where various people can come, stay, study about different aspects of farming, environmental issues etc. which helps open new vistas of thought and action for them. Training sessions happen from one day to six months. Hundreds of people have attended the program till now and have adopted the learnings from here in their own farm. In future, we wish that the ashram does not remain just a place of study for a few individuals or families, but rather grow into a study facility for a larger mass audience. People who keep a keen interest on natural/environmental issues, and who are interested in living a life of mutual co-existence with eco system at large are invited to the ashram to learn the methods here and also to share their methods and experiences.
