Sustainable agriculture is a type of agriculture which, in addition to producing food and agricultural products, is also economically advantageous for farmers, socially correct, respectful of nature and the environment. Sustainable agriculture contributes to improving the quality of life of both farmers and society. Climate change, economic development and social equity influence the sustainable agriculture and require complex and shared solutions on a large scale. Sustainable agriculture includes different meanings, such as environmental, social and economic perspective. The environmental perspective is related to the development of virtuous processes that respect the planet's resources, the healthiness of the soil and water, guaranteeing the maintenance of biodiversity and avoiding the use of pesticides and chemical agents. The social and economic perspective is the ability to meet the global demand of both industrialized and developing countries by ensuring the improvement of the protection of human rights and solidarity-based economic development, the quality of life of farmers, the ethical treatment of animals. The aim of this work is to discuss the implications and perspectives of sustainable agriculture in relation to food production.

Abstract
Sustainable agriculture is a type of agriculture which, in addition to producing food and agricultural products, is also economically advantageous for farmers, socially correct, respectful of nature and the environment. Sustainable agriculture contributes to improving the quality of life of both farmers and society. Climate change, economic development and social equity influence the sustainable agriculture and require complex and shared solutions on a large scale. Sustainable agriculture includes different meanings, such as environmental, social and economic perspective. The environmental perspective is related to the development of virtuous processes that respect the planet's resources, the healthiness of the soil and water, guaranteeing the maintenance of biodiversity and avoiding the use of pesticides and chemical agents. The social and economic perspective is the ability to meet the global demand of both industrialized and developing countries by ensuring the improvement of the protection of human rights and solidarity-based economic development, the quality of life of farmers, the ethical treatment of animals. The aim of this work is to discuss the implications and perspectives of sustainable agriculture in relation to food production.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
