Agriculture cannot and should not be less than being sustainable. Sustainable agriculture means a vibrant, happy, progressive and sustainable society. India has a vast experience of creating innovations in agriculture. Sustainability, in fact, cannot be realized without articulation of innovations. Innovations are crux of sustainability. This book collates selected articles of scholars reflecting, searching, discovering, inventing and articulating innovations in food production and agricultural systems. The articles attempt to conceive ideas and insight of sustainable agriculture, involving cropping, livestock and livelihood systems. The scholars attempt to raise and resolve various issues concerning agricultural sustainability, underline farmers' knowledge, experimentation, innovations and strategies, and also reveal various technologies and institutional interventions vital for articulating innovations and operationalizing sustainability in agriculture.

Communication intervention is phenomenal for agricultural development. Without an effective communication system agriculture itself would be in jeopardy. Well thought out effective, perspective based and meaningful communication intervention is a must for development of sustainable agriculture. Since agricultural development is inevitably linked with rural development, communication intervention in the former sector would articulate into the latter. India in fact the real India dwells in villages. Rural development basically articulates in the meaningful development of most of India. Rural character of India and agriculture at the heart of rural India represent soul of India. The book presented to the academic world of agricultural communication attempts to explore many opportunities for sustainable agriculture and rural development applying the many facets of communication intervention. Trends in agricultural extension, participatory rural appraisal, community radio, cyber extension, technology adoption, role of ICT, sustainable development models, ITK utility of mass media, poverty alleviation, Knowledge management, communicational attributes, communicational behaviour, animate energy, gender-based development, public-private partnership, etc. are some of the crucial issues elaborated in different chapters contributed by eminent scholars active in the field of communication and rural development. This book could be regarded as one of the landmark publications in communication intervention for sustainable agriculture and rural development. (jacket).
