Abstract

Production of food in a safe and sustainable manner has become crucial to meet the global food security, without harming the environment and ensure ecological preservation especially in the backdrop of the climate change impact. To attend the objective of safe and sustainable crop production, Inhana Organic Research Foundation, (Kolkata) has initiated the ‘Clean Food Movement’ in collaboration with Nadia Krishi Vigyan Kendra, ICAR, BCKV. Inhana Rational Farming (IRF) Technology- a comprehensive organic package of practice has been introduced as the major interventional agri-technology along with other techniques/ good agricultural practices, for the purpose of ‘Clean Food’ development. Clean food is a food segment that is produced without the use of carcinogenic pesticides (especially Class-I & Class –II), antibiotics, steroid, growth promoters, etc. The safety of the clean food will be ensured by the Clean Food Standard (CFS) Certification through qualitative colorimetric assay test for pesticide residues. Clean food movement will probably be the first ever initiative towards Healthy Life & Farmers’ Empowerment that will bring forth pesticide- free clean food at an affordable price structure.
