Abstract
Sustainable agriculture plays a crucial role in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. This chapter analyzes the linkages between sustainable agriculture practices and specific SDGs, examining the potential of eco-friendly farming techniques to address socio-economic and environmental issues. It provides an overview of prominent goals directly influenced by agriculture like zero hunger, climate action, and responsible production and consumption. Additionally, it highlights innovative case studies that demonstrate how principles of regeneration and agroecology can drive progress on interlinked SDGs spanning poverty alleviation, clean water access, gender equality, and reduced inequalities. By synthesizing research on sustainable techniques like conservation agriculture, integrated farming systems, and organic agriculture, this chapter offers actionable recommendations for agricultural stakeholders to align with the 2030 agenda for sustainable development. It emphasizes the need for evidence-based, context-specific approaches that balance productivity, resilience, and environmental protection across local and global scales.
