LOCUST ATTACK AND AGROHOMOEOPATHY
Homoeopathy has proved its efficacy in Co-Vid19 pandemic and our job is not over yet. We have another chance to prove our efficacy. With emerging spread of Locust attack in India and other countries, let's have a discussion on Agrohomoeopathy and the promises it holds.
โDefinition:
Agrohomoeopathy is the branch of homoeopathy which deals with its efficacy in plants.
โHistory:
Plant homeopathy was first mentioned almost 200 years ago in the writings of Baron von Boenninghausen who was the son-in-law of Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy. Boenninghausen noted that the excess or leftover remedies he threw into his plant pots were having an effect on the plants, but he never took the research further. Charles Darwin, after his miraculous cure with homeopathy , also wrote of the startling effects that potentised remedies had on plants. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries both Rudolph Steiner and Lilly Kolisko of the anthroposophical movement experimented with various substances on plants as well, but these were not true homeopathic remedies.
