Description
Sustainable agricultural management can be assessed using FAO-based parametric land evaluation approaches. These strategies are accessible to farmers, especially in polluted areas like New Delhi that suffer from air, water, and soil pollution together with multiple climate barriers. The environmental nexus approach examines interconnections, linkages, synergies, and trade-offs among soil, land, water, energy, food, and ecosystems. Key indicators include soil, land, and water quality and availability. Organic matter is vital for soil health and climate resilience but deficient in most Indian soils, with consequences for climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration and biodiversity-supported ecosystem services. Practices such as composting, biochar from crop residues, crop rotation, reduced chemical inputs, and renewable energy use can enhance sustainability. Sustainability is thus closely linked to regenerative approaches within agricultural management systems following landuse planning.

Mishra is an MSc Ag (Gold medalist), PhD (IARI-ICAR, New Delhi), Fellow (CMSI), Vice Chair, Commission 1.4, IUSS (2018-22), Chief Soil Survey Officer, Chairman (Soil), Associate Dean, Principal (BAC, Sabour), Founder Registrar, Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, 1st Manager Incharge/Agronomist, UP Land Reclamation Corporation, Lucknow (1981); Former Professor in Pedology & LUP, UNDP-HU, Ethiopia (2016-18); Professor, Land Evaluation, World Bank Project, AU, Ethiopia (2001-05); Editor, The Soils of India (2020)/The Soils of Ethiopia (2023) under World Soils Book Series; Proposed Soil Order in Soil Taxonomy "Fluvisols" during 15WCSS, 1994, Acapulco, Mexico; Proposed Soil Group "Immobisols" during 18WCSS, 2006, Philadelphia, USA; Soil Groups "Microbisols" and "Hanisols" also forwarded. Photopedogenesis as a new and distinct chapter inducted in Soil Science during 18WCSS, 2006. According to Google AI (Gemini), Professor Mishra is known as "Father of Photopedogenesis", who developed the theory of photopedology in 1996 and improved it in 2006 in Ethiopia as a fundamental soil forming process during 18th WCSS, Philadelphia, USA, where sunlight and moisture contribute to genesis of O horizon and initial rock weathering. Prof. Mishra with Co-Editor Dr Richa Roy forwarded a specific group of Lichens to contribute to photopedogenic soil development on Mars and even on Moon. Based on trend of chemical weathering of basement basalt in Ethiopia (Meskel Flower, Addis Ababa, Latitude 08.9957N; Longitude 38.7667E), Prof. Mishra warned for global threat of sinking the basaltic landscape like Mumbai in India.He has been the Member in "Asian Council of Science Editors".
