Health is one of the prime agenda in creating a sustainable development of the world. The physical, social and economic environment, and individual characteristics and behaviors determines a persons' health. The framework on the Commission on Social Determinants of Health included all these determinants impacting on health and wellbeing of a person. This is further reflected in Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of United Nations as the Goal 3 i.e., 'Ensure heathy lives and promote well being at all ages' which is linked with all other 16 SDGs.
The increasing number of cancers, other non-communicable diseases, and nutritional disorders can be directly/indirectly correlated with decreasing soil fertility. For sustainable agricultural development, the main issues are the utilization of modern science and technology, implementation of organic farming to achieve demand-able supply taking into consideration population pressure and demographic transition. There is a need to address soil fertility, water scarcity, multi-sectorial involvement in agriculture, enhancement of agri-extension and agri ventures. It is important to achieve sustainable agriculture preserve the soil fertility for the future generation and to maintain/improve the quantity and quality of agriculture products for attaining SDGs. Hence, we have planned this CME as a first and formal academic effort to link the health and agriculture sectors for better coordination at the national to the village level to achieve “Sustainable Development” together.
