520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Bargarh district, a hub for paddy farming in Odisha, faces growing economic and environmental challenges because of its overreliance on rice cultivation. The heavy dependency on government subsidies and Minimum Support Prices (MSP), coupled with the adverse effects of water depletion, soil degradation, and biodiversity loss, underscores the urgent need for crop diversification. Moreover, this transition could align with national goals of doubling farmers’ incomes and reducing the ecological footprint of agriculture. This study examines viable alternatives like horticulture, pisciculture, and animal husbandry, emphasizing their potential to enhance farmer incomes and promote ecological sustainability. Through an analysis of economic benefits, environmental advantages, and challenges, actionable recommendations are proposed to facilitate a transition toward sustainable agriculture in the district.- Reproduced
