Agricultural technologies, such as biopesticide and polytunnel, have reduced insect infestations and minimised chemical use, improving crop quality and quantity. Additionally, the farm enhances soil nutrients with natural compost made from chicken dung, which lowers the need for fertilisers and results in safer goods.
