Nayakrishi

[1] The Movement began in response to environmental hazards that were believed to have been started by the use of insecticides and nematicides in the growing of crops.

[2] In addition to health concerns the movement strongly promotes organic farming, and the use for food and animal fodder of plants which are often regarded as weeds.

[3] This is seen as both furthering self-sufficiency and distancing Bangladesh from Western development firms and the International Monetary Fund.

[4] Nayakrishi has a special emphasis on supporting women, with a programme of supplying cattle to poor female-headed households which are kept until a calf is born, when the original animal is passed on to another family,[3] and the organisation of the Specialised Women's Seed Network to collect seeds from local varieties of crops.
