431 Manjit S Kang & PPS Pangli FOR an agricultural system to be considered sustainable, it must produce abundant food without depleting natural resources and polluting the environment. It must not render the future generations bereft of resources to meet their needs. Sustainable agriculture is a system of producing food that is healthy for consumers, humane for workers, provides fair wages to farmers and farm workers, and supports and uplifts rural communities. While the Green Revolution of the 1960s helped India achieve self-sufficiency in foodgrains and shed its pejorative ‘ship-to-mouth existence’ image, it turned out not to be sustainable, as it depleted our soils of nutrients, increased our dependence on inorganic chemicals, polluted our waters, soil and air, and dried up our water aquifers. Not only that, our crop diversification disappeared, having been replaced by the prevalent rice-wheat monoculture.
