Research Summary: Yeshika, Class 10, Kendriya Vidyalaya NHPC Uri
Focal Theme: Understanding Ecosystems for Health and Well-being
Sub-theme: Social and Cultural Practices for Ecosystem and Health
Topic: Non-Chemical Farming on Pest Management: An Inquest and Denouement
Problem Statement:
The unsystematic and excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has caused significant imbalances in our natural ecosystems, leading to adverse effects on both the environment and human health.
Proposed Solution:
In search of a sustainable alternative, we explored various regions of Kashmir and discovered a herbaceous perennial flowering plant, Urtica dioica. This plant, commonly known as stinging nettle, is rich in essential nutrients such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron. Our research indicates that Urtica dioica can be effectively utilized as a natural fertilizer, pesticide, acaricide, and fungicide. Its application promises to restore ecological balance while promoting healthier farming practices, free from the harmful effects of synthetic chemicals.
Yeshika’s research not only highlights a viable solution for eco-friendly pest management but also underscores the importance of integrating traditional knowledge with modern science for sustainable agriculture.
