Abstract: This study explores the economic incentives and barriers affecting the transition from conventional to organicfarming. Through comparative analysis of two farming systems, data was collected from 40 farmers to assess profitability,market access, and institutional support. Results show organic farmers benefit from price premiums but face high transitioncosts and certification challenges. Conventional systems offer short-term gains but raise sustainability concerns. Findingshighlight the need for supportive policies to enable a sustainable shift in agribusiness practices.
