India, Nov. 19 -- Maharashtra Governor Acharya Devvrat on Tuesday said chemical-based farming is having a serious impact on people's health and natural farming is an effective alternative to safeguard our future generations. In the future, more than a family doctor, every family will need a farmer who practices natural farming, he said, speaking at the inauguration of a one-day Natural Farming Conference organised at the College of Agriculture.

Agriculture Minister Dattatray Bharne and Agriculture Department Principal Secretary Vikaschandra Rastogi were also present on the occasion.
