However, achieving sustainability in agriculture is fraught with obstacles, from abiotic and biotic threats to land degradation and water resource crises. Achieving Food Security Through Sustainable Agriculture is a book that offers a comprehensive solution to these challenges. It delves deep into sustainable agricultural development, providing insights and strategies to enhance agricultural productivity while safeguarding the environment. This book is not just a theoretical exploration of sustainable agriculture. It is a practical guide that academics, agronomists, agricultural institutions, and environmental organizations can use to navigate the complexities of sustainable agriculture. It addresses food security challenges and demonstrates how sustainable practices can increase agricultural production. The book's ultimate goal is to empower readers to implement these practices in their work and contribute to the global sustainability movement.

This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Progress towards Sustainable Agriculture initiative (PROSA) is a framework that seeks to complement ongoing efforts on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and particularly indicator 2.4.1, to support country-level assessments using data already available at the national level. Making agriculture more sustainable – productive, environmentally friendly, resilient and profitable is fundamental, as agriculture remains the main source of livelihood for the majority of the world’s poor and hungry. The pathway towards sustainable agriculture must ensure increasing output, but also make more efficient use of increasingly scarce global resources, be resilient to and help mitigate climate change, and improve human well-being. This technical study examines the key factors driving changes in trends in the indicators of sustainable agriculture and provides decision-makers with insights into viable options for achieving this goal. The study identifies five key groups of drivers that most influence these indicators globally. The ways in which each driver affects the multiple dimensions of sustainability highlights the interconnections, synergies and trade-offs that must be managed in different global contexts to achieve agricultural sustainability. The analysis can help decision-makers operating in different country contexts to identify practical solutions to ensure that their interventions contribute positively to a more sustainable agriculture.

This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the important topic of policies for sustainable agriculture, since food insecurity is a growing concern for policy makers and will affect the quality of life and well-being of generations to come. The authors provide a theoretical background to the concept of sustainable agriculture including its recent developments; monitor the current state of sustainability in agriculture in different regions of the world; and evaluate current agricultural policies to propose new solutions. They show practical ways of sustainability measurement that could be applied to different regions. The book takes into account sustainability indicators based on economic, social and environmental aspects and discusses the trade-offs between these three dimensions. It also answers the question of whether current agricultural policies contribute to balancing between the goals of agriculture---that of not just providing food but of contributing to the greater good---and how policies differ and have evolved across the world. Finally, it puts together the best practices of sustainability for the use of policymakers. The book pays particular attention to least developed countries where hunger and malnutrition are high, but where productivity should not come at the expense of environmental and social goals. This book is of use to a wide readership of policy makers, professionals and academics in the social and environmental sciences interested in the improvement of human life through sustainable agricultural policy implementation.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powstawanie nowych przedsiębiorstw energetycznych na obszarach wiejskich z jednej strony stanowi wyzwanie, z drugiej zaś stwarza szansę rozwoju. Przejście od scentralizowanej energetyki konwencjonalnej w kierunku zdecentralizowanej energetyki odnawialnej wykorzystującej zasoby lokalne to proces wielopłaszczyznowy, dotyczący nie tylko zmian technologicznych, ale wymagający przede wszystkim przeobrażeń społecznych i przestrzennych. Przekształcenia w sektorze energetycznym kreślą też perspektywę indukowania nowych bodźców rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego danego obszaru i mobilizacji potencjału lokalnego. Działając w lokalnych układach, budując sieć powiązań, zakorzeniając się, przedsiębiorstwa energetyczne stwarzają możliwość uruchomienia sił napędowych lokalnych gospodarek. Tworzone relacje i pogłębiana współpraca to także doskonała płaszczyzna popularyzowania działań edukacyjnych w zakresie postaw i zachowań charakterystycznych dla społeczeństwa niskoemisyjnego. Formułowanie założeń skutecznych polityk lokalnych, szczególnie w zakresie upowszechnienia się gospodarki niskoemisyjnej, musi uwzględniać zidentyfikowane procesy odnoszące się do rangi powiązań między nowymi podmiotami energetycznymi a lokalnym otoczeniem.

This book was released on 2021-06-02 with total page 913 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a multidisciplinary collection of original contributions made by the leading scholars and practitioners on researching, building, and maintaining sustainable agricultural systems. Being the first of its kind, the book is divided into two volumes. This book presents a comprehensive and informed review of the current state of multidisciplinary knowledge on sustainability in agriculture. The gaps in the scholarly literature are identified and rigorously analyzed, presenting a clear picture of the promising research directions. The authors critically analyze the very concept of sustainable agricultural systems, primarily focusing on the interactions existing between their integral components and with external environments. Relying on the provisions of complex systems science, the scholars then discuss the best approaches and methodologies used to build a comprehensive understanding of agricultural systems, with relation to achieving and maintaining their sustainability. More than that, this book holds two rich sections on (1) agricultural economics and (2) rural sustainability. Understanding sustainable development as a movement toward clearly defined and measurable goals, a set of chapters explore those policies, practices, technologies, and management systems that have an impact on the sustainability of agricultural systems. Agricultural sustainability is an urgent issue to be addressed, and this book makes a unique contribution. Due to its practical focus, the book appeals to practitioners and policymakers working in agricultural economics, governance, and sustainability, not just academics. This is also a valuable resource for graduate students interested in agricultural systems, sustainability, as well as complex systems theory and practice.

This book was released on 2021-08-18 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing sustainable organic agriculture and resilient agribusiness sector is fundamental, keeping in mind the value of the opportunity presented by the growing demand for healthy and safe food globally, with the expectation for the global population to reach 9.8 billion by 2050, and 11 billion by 2100. Lately, the main threats in Europe, and worldwide, are the increasingly dynamic climate change and economic factors related to currency fluctuations. While the current environmental policy provides several mechanisms to support agribusinesses in mitigating organic food for daily increasing human population and stability of the currency, it does not contemplate the relative readiness of individuals and businesses to act correctly. Organic farming is the practice that relies more on using sustainable methods to cultivate crops and produce food animals, avoiding chemicals and dietary synthetic drug inputs that do not belong to the natural ecosystem. Organic agriculture can also contribute to meaningful socioeconomic, ecologically sustainable development, and significantly in the development of the agribusiness sector, especially in developing countries.
