Innovation Title | Development and piloting of a comprehensive framework for farming systems sustainability assessment |
Innovation description | A comprehensive framework for farming systems sustainability assessment with five domains- Environmental sustainability, Economic sustainability, Social sustainability, Productivity and Human well-being and 115 measurable indicators has been developed and implemented/validated in one location in India (Nalgonda) for different functional farm types. The development of online open access Dashboard tool for farming system sustainability assessment using the comprehensive framework has been conceptualized and being developed as a global public good. |
