Innovations and Future Directions in Sustainable Agriculture

Abstract

Sustainable agriculture focuses on meeting present food demands without compromising future generations. Innovations such as precision farming, climate-smart practices, integrated nutrient management, biofertilizers, biopesticides, conservation agriculture, and digital advisory systems have improved productivity and resource efficiency. Technologies like artificial intelligence, remote sensing, renewable energy use, and water-efficient irrigation systems are enhancing resilience to climate change. Future directions emphasize soil health restoration, biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and circular bioeconomy approaches. Strengthening extension services, farmer participation, and supportive policies will accelerate adoption. These advancements aim to build a resilient, eco-friendly, and economically viable agricultural system worldwide.
