THE EFFICACY OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
(2024)Department of Service Studies
- Abstract
- Understanding the sustainability concept: According to the UN World Commission on
Environment,(Borowy, 2013) it is the balance between environment, economy, and equity. The
development meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to
meet their own needs (Rauschmayer et al., 2012). Sustainability is integration of the environmental
health, social equity, and economic vitality to create thriving, healthy, diverse, and resilient
communities for this generation and the generation to come(Kiracı and Çalıyurt, 2022). This is all
about our children, our grandchildren, and the world we will leave behind.

development meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to

about our children, our grandchildren, and the world we will leave behind.
A standpoint in this essay is that sustainable service management in an ecosystem is the only way to
protect, preserve, and manage the limited and nonrenewable resources. For instance, if we cut trees
without planting more, in the long run, there will be no forests. These are the forests which help us to
create clouds and they produce rainfall which enables our crops and all vegetation to grow, even us
humans survive on that.
According to Campanhola and Pandey (2019), Agricultural industries are at a crossroads, facing the
dual challenge of meeting the global food demand while minimizing environmental impacts. Food
systems need to change fundamentally to become sustainable. Sustainable service management in
agriculture refers to the strategic integration of sustainability principles into service operations, design,
delivery, and innovation to enhance environmental, economic, and social outcomes Neven (2014).
The agricultural sector is a significant contributor to global environmental issues, including
deforestation, water scarcity, and greenhouse gas emissions, (Rehman Khalid, 2015) However, it also
suffers from these environmental changes, which threaten food security. Sustainable agricultural
practices can play a pivotal role in transforming agricultural industry by adopting eco-friendly
technologies, reducing waste, and improving resource efficiency. Despite its potential, the adoption
and impact of sustainable agricultural practices are not well understood. This academic essay aims to
explore the efficacy of sustainable agricultural practices in the industry of agriculture for
environmental sustainability. (Less)
