Abstract

This paper investigates the role of sustainable agricultural practices in ensuring food security in rural areas. The study focuses on organic farming, crop rotation, and integrated pest management (IPM) techniques. Through field surveys conducted across five rural communities, the research examines the challenges faced by farmers, the economic feasibility of adopting sustainable practices, and their long term benefits in terms of soil health and crop yield. The paper concludes that sustainable agricultural practices are not only essential for food security but also contribute to environmental preservation.
