Bio dynamic farming
Organic farming system when extrapolated with plants and stars became biodynamic farming. Moon and Saturn are taken into account as moon influence the water (90% of plants and human consists of water only) and Saturn governs the agriculture. The crop operations which are (-) ve in nature like, cutting, pruning, harvesting, etc can be done during the waning phase of moon, while the crop operations which are (+) in nature viz., planting or sowing, application of manures etc can be performed during the waxing phase of the moon. There is an agricultural almanac developed for this purpose taking into account the stellar movements.

Agnihotra
System advocates inclusion of sound waves in a particular frequency through mantras which they say purify the environment and ensures cosmic flow on the field for better expression of crops. The essential feature of organic cultivation is that the farming should be made viable without any extra input from outside. The farm waste, farm animal waste are to be recycled in such a way that the crops enjoy all the comfort from soil and atmospheric environment and derive nourishment continuously over years from the revitalized soil and atmosphere.
