The aims for organic farming are: giving local producers away of conserving the environment and natural resources, re-establishing ecological balance, encouraging sustainable agriculture, improving soil fertility, conserving flora and fauna, increasing genetic diversity, and putting an end to chemical pollution and toxic residues. In addition to banning the use of every kind of synthetic and chemical pesticides and fertilizers, organic agriculture encourages practicing organic and green fertilization, crop rotation, soil conservation, improving plants resistance to pests and diseases, benefiting from parasites and predators. The main goal of organic agriculture is not raising the quantity, but improving the quality of food products. By practicing organic agriculture in the communities surrounding the national park in Uganda, on the Rwandan side of the great mountains and in the areas of the democratic republic of congo next to the virunga massif, our organic farming project is building sustainable farming communities and produce and the possibility to produce agricultural goods without polluting soil, water resources, and air while protecting environment, plant, animal, and human health.
