UPSC Prelims 2023CSATCurrent AffairsReading Comprehension - Logical Message

Q4. Which one of the following statements best reflects the most logical, rational and practical message conveyed by the author of the passage?

A. In India, organic farming should not be promoted as a substitute for conventional farming.
B. There are no safe organic alternatives to chemical fertilizers.
C. In India, farmers need to be guided and helped to make their organic farming sustainable.✓ Correct
D. The aim of organic farming should not be to generate huge profits as there is still no global market for its products.

Detailed Solution

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

The passage details the challenges faced by India's organic farming sector, including its nascent stage, lack of regulation, confusion among stakeholders, and potential misuse of organic inputs due to lack of knowledge. The author's examples of farmyard manure and Datura spray highlight the need for proper guidance and research.

This strongly suggests that for organic farming to be truly beneficial and sustainable in India, farmers require support and education. Options A and B are extreme and not supported by the passage, which points to issues with current practices, not a fundamental flaw in organic farming itself.

Option D is outside the scope of the passage, which focuses on safety and regulation, not market profitability.
