Food security and hunger eradication in India needs urgent attention, careful planning, and determined action in view of the declining per hectare yield of major crops and ever-increasing population pressure. With tremendous pressure on land and water resources, safe agricultural practices of thousands of years were given up and chemical agriculture ushered in. Apart from the threat posed by indiscriminate exploitation of land, water, and ecosystem, there is a total lack of safe and healthy practices in the use of these resources affecting the very sustenance of land, water flora, fauna at the diversified ecosystems. The pursuit of more sustainable forms of agriculture is of central importance in meeting the above-said challenges. Hence, there is a need to think of alternatives in order to sustain food production without endangering the environment and ecology. Not Available |
