Organic farming is one of the most well-known alternative production techniques, with benefits to the soil, ecology, health, and financial well-being of agricultural communities. The rapid rise in market interest in organic products gives an incredible potential for organic agriculture expansion. It is critical to have a full grasp of the context-specific motives of farmers for adopting organic farming systems so that relevant policy measures can be implemented. A systematic farm survey was done in a rural region with the goal of studying the social and biophysical motives of conventional and organic cotton producers for adopting their respective growing strategies. The research area was chosen because it is a major cotton-growing region with existing conventional and organic farms operating under similar conditions.
