| Abstract |
The objective of this review was to study the contribution of organic agriculture
(OA) to the development paradigm of Bhutan, Gross National Happiness (GNH). The
contribution of OA on GNH was examined on each of the domains under four pillars. The
impacts of OA on GNH were assessed using the GNH Project Screening Tool of
Agriculture. The tool was developed based on four pillars and nine domains of GNH by
Centre for Bhutan Studies (CBS). Each of the screening variable consists of 4-pointer scale:
1 (negative), 2 (uncertain), 3 (neutral), and 4 (positive). We found that the OA and GNH
share the comparable principles. The principles focusing on the sustainability, well-being of
the people, and natural ecosystem while enhancing the economic growth. Further, the result
showed the positive score of 120 out of 136 scores. This is the way beyond neutral score of
102. Scoring was from our judgement based on the available literature. The apparent result
shows that Bhutan has chosen a viable option. |
