Agriculture was the key development that led to the rise of civilization, with the husbandry of domesticated animals and plants creating food surpluses that enabled the development of more densely populated and stratified societies.To attain the ‘sustainable development’ goal requires urgent actions on three fronts; the ecological, the social and the economic.

There are major problems and issues in agriculture:
1) Ecology/Technology
2) The Global Economic Framework
3) Land for the Farmers
This problems and issues have been resolved in an integrated way, if sustainable agriculture is to be taken seriously. It integrates the three main goals the environmental stewardship, farm profitability, and prosperous farming communities.
