Agriculture, essential for feeding billions, significantly impacts the environment. Effective government policies and digital innovations in sustainable food technologies are crucial to mitigate these impacts while ensuring food security. Poorly designed policies can lead to adverse outcomes, as seen in Sri Lanka. Global disparities in agri-environmental policies necessitate stringent enforcement and international cooperation.
Governments must implement and monitor effective policies, considering global impacts and utilizing digital tools to track and reduce environmental harm across supply chains, ensuring sustainable practices worldwide.
