Our work
Falling health is common in all walks of society. Food is as responsible for it as much as stress and pollution. Food is expected to nourish, but our diets have falling levels of nutrition. Whatever little available nutrition is also poisoned by chemicals. Safe Food is utmost necessary to escape this erosion of nutritive values of our everyday food. Food in every form is the result of farming. Farming is in the grip of the doctrine of the Green Revolution which advocates cultivation of hybrid seeds that have far less nutritive values than the traditional. Hybrid crops are susceptible to infections that warrant use of chemical pesticides. The residues of these deadly chemicals reach our bodies affecting human health in many ways. The awareness of safe food is vital to put an halt to this, and to ensure the building up of a healthy nation. Such a safe food will be raised from crops taken on local natural seeds, in their natural seasona l cycles without external chemical interventions to unnaturally engineer or boost yield.
