Pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, etc., are being increasingly used. These incidentally, are also toxic to non-target organisms, which are important components of the soil ecosystem. Organic farming doesn't facilitate the use of such chemical compounds and thus is helpful in both sustainable development as well as decreasing problems like biomagnification that arises due to the accumulation of such chemicals in the living organism of the aquatic system.
