The SDGs and Indian Agriculture

n September 2015, members of the UN adopted the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) for 2030. These goals are a continuation of the Millennium Development Goals, which ended on 2015.Sustainable development is defined as meeting the needs of the present generation without harming the capacity of future generation to meet their needs. It focuses on developing an inclusive, sustainable and resilient future not only for humans but for the planet as a whole. SDG has 17 goals, 169 targets to be achieved over period of 15 years.  All SDG’s are linked to agriculture in one way or the other and also interconnected. Most of the least developed and developing countries including India are predominantly agricultural economies, where these goals assume even greater significance. We can witness interlinkages of the 17 SDGs in the context of agriculture and food security and understanding this will be crucial in developing strategies for realizing the SDGs.
