Issues of global agricultural production and food marketing at present, given mounting pressure to increase food production in socially responsible and environment friendly way. Sustainable agriculture is at the heart of the 2030 Agenda and first fundamental step to securing zero hunger. While many of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) address issues related to agriculture, SDG indicator 2.4.1 is fully dedicated towards it. National Mission for Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA) is one of the eight Missions outlined under National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) and aims at promoting sustainable agriculture through 17 deliverables focusing on 10 key dimensions of Indian agriculture. During 12th Five Year Plan, these dimensions were embedded and mainstreamed into Missions/ Programmes / Schemes of Department of Agriculture, Cooperation & Farmers Welfare (DAC&FW) through a process of restructuring and convergence. Its components are Rain fed Area Development (RAD) and Soil Health Management (SHM). Although, sustainable agriculture can be defined in many ways, but ultimately it seeks to sustain farmers, resources and communities by promoting farming practices and methods that are economically profitable, environmentally sound and good for communities. So, sustainability is a multifaceted concept which includes three major dimensions i.e., social, economic and environment. As per Bruntland Report of United Nations- Sustainability is defined as “Sustainable development means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. Sustainable agriculture can be defined as producing food and livestock over the long term with minimal negative effects on the environment.
