Practice abstract “Using farm sustainability assessment tools to assess the impacts of diversification"

Author: Michael Curran

Problem: The agricultural sector faces global sustainability challenges, including overuse of agro-chemicals, rising greenhouse gas emissions, degraded soils, simplified landscapes, poor working conditions, waning profitability and loss of livelihoods (IAASTD 2009, Poore and Nemecek 2018).

Solution: Several farm-based “Sustainability Assessment Tools” (SATs) have been developed to address these challenges by allowing farmers to assess their performances and support better management decisions.
