Sustainable farming to build better food systems
Indian soils have been used for growing crops over thousands of years without caring much for replenishing. This has led to depletion and exhaustion of soils resulting in their low productivity. The average yields of almost all the crops are among the lowest in the world, In spite of the large-scale mechanisation of agriculture in some parts of the country.
Understanding the problem.
I feel before we try to understand the basics of sustainable farming, it's important to understand the larger crisis. Nutrition continues to be the main challenge in India. We have a very high prevalence of undernourishment and micronutrient deficiency, for which it is placed at the bottom and second from the bottom globally, respectively. The health and vitality of the soil in which crops are grown are integral to food production; poor soil means poor crop yields. Climate change represents a serious threat. Temperature changes have affected how and where things grew, disrupted the water cycle, shifted rain patterns and evaporation, and caused more storms and severe droughts.

Story of Boombay
Hi, I’m Niharika Goenka. I’m the founder of Boombay and I’m also a food addict with a history of overtraining, bingeing, under-eating and downright gluttony. I started Arugula & Co. - a health food startup with a single point agenda - to help you #eatmoreveggies in 2018. Now under a whole new identity, I’m adding a new agenda to the list.
From my first diet at the age of thirteen, I had tried every protein shake, gone on every “healthy diet”, and even completed a Masters in Nutrition from Columbia University, only to stumble on three simple truths: nutritious food is one that is closest to its original form, unrecognisable ingredients that use numbers and symbols for names are not real food, and lastly, flavour satiates, food never does. Arugula&Co and Boombay are the results of my fifteen-year journey to better health, sustainable food and search for great flavour.
After completing my Masters in Nutrition & Exercise Physiology at the age of 24, I was asked one of two things: “Give me tips on how to lose weight,” or “When are you starting your practice as a nutritionist?”. It was assumed that I would follow the traditional path and become a nutritionist but I didn’t want to limit my career to “weight loss” as, like a lot of urban teenage girls, I too had a history of disordered eating, binge eating, and yo-yo dieting that had long convinced me that ‘dieting’ in any form was not the answer. As I was learning about things such as mindful and intuitive approaches to food, I happened to take a class that changed my life forever. Day 1 of Nutritional Ecology went like this: Joan Dye Gussow, the matriarch of the ‘eat local think global’ movement walks in, eighty-seven at the time, and tells me why the vultures outside my window at Malabar Hill were dying— if you’re curious, it’s because cows were falling sick. Back in the ’90s, we started feeding cattle NSAID’s, the equivalent of a human dose of common over-the-counter drugs such as aspirin or ibuprofen. What we didn’t know was that NSAIDs contain a chemical called diclofenac which, when ingested by the vultures that scavenge on cow carcasses, causes instant kidney failure. As the birds fell from the skies, the food systems and the cultural practices of Zoroastrians collapsed in the mere span of a decade.

Can Capitalism Help Solve The World’s Problems?
For decades large corporations have profited by abusing our health and our lands, and destroying our farmers' livelihood and our planet. Instead of choosing unhealthy food practices and developing damaging production systems, what if businesses used capitalism for good? What if we could design a domino effect that did not start but solve the biggest world problems for a change?
Of course I knew the world was heating up when I walked into Joan Dye Gussow’s classroom as a Masters’s student in Nutrition at Columbia University. I was 22 and she was 87 I had never planted a tree before, and she, being the matriarch of the “Eat Local, Think Global Movement,” lived off of her own land.
Over the next 3 months, she told us why the vultures outside my house at Kemps Corner in Bombay had gone almost extinct, why one of our classmates suffered a food infection so bad that she had to have half of her intestines removed, and why we’d have to eat 8 oranges to get the same amount of Vitamin A that our grandparents had gotten from a single orange.
All of these issues boil down to one umbrella issue – we had capitalized our food systems to serve the purpose of profit over people and the planet. The backdrop of a rising population and the political worry of feeding the world resulted in the creation of genetically modified seeds. By the end of World War II in 1945, governments were also left with excessive amounts of Ammonium Nitrate, an essential ingredient for explosives, that were then repurposed into fertilizers for farmlands. As Vandana Shiva, the Indian Activist says – “we are still eating the leftovers of World War II.” Today four companies – Bayer, Corteva, ChemChina and Limagrain control more than 50% of the world’s seeds. These seeds are genetically modified to improve crop yield and designed to last only one generation; making farmers dependent on repurchasing them for the next season. In addition, the same companies manufacture the herbicides and pesticides these seeds require to produce a bumper yield. Farmers are often legally banned from saving and cultivating their own seeds so their only option is to purchase the seeds and chemicals from these MNCs. But here’s what really takes the cake: once the food is produced, humans throw away one-third of it to waste. That’s enough food to feed 2 billion people, which is more than double the number of undernourished humans across the globe. The system clearly does not work for people.
