      <Abstract>Dhule district of Maharashtra state comprises four tehsils viz. Dhule, Shirpur, Sakri, and Shindkheda. The soil quality and productivity are being affected badly in the southern parts of Shirpur tehsil. It is necessary to evaluate the adverse impacts of chemical fertilizers in the Shirpur tehsil. The present study is organized in order to find out the farmers attitude towards organic fertilizer application in the Shirpur. 598 farmers from 12 villages of four tehsils were questioned for their perspective towards organic and chemical fertilizer application in the farm. The research outcome reveals different attitudes for organic fertilizer application and benefits in different groups i.e. education levels of farmers, farm size, and villages. The large farm size farmers and educated farmers are more in numbers compared to small size farmers and illiterate farmers. Therefore an attempt has been made to find out the attitude of farmers towards utilization of organic fertilizer in the farms for sustainable farming.</Abstract>
