ZBNF: Zero budget farming is a cultivating method for the natural development of yields without using substance composts. It is a unique chemical-free method that involves agro-ecology. For the zero-net expenditure of manufacturing, outcomes are known as the term zero budget. ZBNF reduces farming expenses and promotes the use of natural fertilizers and local seeds. It uses biological pesticides. Farmers can use cow dung, urine, human excreta, plants, natural fertilizers, and earthworms to crop protection. It protects the soil from degradation and decreases the farmer's investment. Zero budget farming is the best method for chemical-free agriculture, drawing from conventional Indian methods. A grassroots peasant movement has spread to various states in India. It has attained wide success in southern India, especially the south Indian state of Karnataka, where it first evolved. A rough estimation for just Karnataka puts the figure there at around 100,000 farmer families. At the same time, at the national level, ZBNF leaders claim that numbers could run into millions.
