International Conference on System of Crop Intensification for Climate-Smart livelihood and Nutritional Security

Innovation in food system is required for regional, national and global food security and sustainability. But experiences show that over dependence and reliance on intensive use of agrochemicals, fossil-fuels and other external inputs have put the sustainability of production system at risk. This has also severely affected the health of natural resources (soil, water, environment and food quality). Thus, there is an urgent need to rethink the choice of technology; practices; policies and .. continue reading strategies for innovations in sustainable crop production. The seeing-is-believing impact of System of Rice Intensification (SRI) in various crops has led to the universalization of SRI principles to other crops also. Today, a new paradigm of System of Crop Intensification (SCI) has emerged which improves the productivity and resilience of crops like wheat, finger millet, sugarcane, mustard, etc. SRI and SCI along with other practices such as conservation agriculture, natural farming, etc. are now put together as agroecological practices. The proposed International Conference ICSCI helps to build on the previous initiatives and experiences and provides a platform to share the advances in the knowledge gain and know-how of the SCI /SRI practices in the changing climate scenario by all the stakeholders.
