Abstract
There are various ideas about how to create sustainable agriculture in
an era of climate change, rising energy costs, social unrest, financial
instability, and escalating environmental degradation that supplies
enough food and ecosystem services for current and future
generations. A new agricultural system must have a minimum of ten
characteristics, which are the hallmarks of green agriculture, in order
to satisfy the demands of a quickly changing world. Finding a set of
thresholds that every agricultural production strategy must meet in
order to avoid unsustainable trends brought on by agricultural
technology will result in a tipping point occurrence is the key difficulty.
Only agricultural methods that advance rural areas by increasing
production yields and technology while meeting the established
threshold criteria will be regarded as a workable kind of green
agriculture. It is wise to define a set of principles and boundaries of
sustainability and flexible and locally adaptable resilience for the future
agroecosystem because the importance of green agriculture for rural
communities will increase the mindset that can bring about significant
change and the diversity of ecological, socio-economic, historical, and
political contexts in which rural agricultural systems will develop.
Keywords: Green Agriculture, Rural Agriculture Increase, Production
Yield.
