Abstract

This article summarizes the vibrant world of waste management in Asia and its important role in the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs). The continent alone has more than 4.5 billion people and produces the greatest amount of waste globally more than 800 million tonnes a year with an estimated increase to 1.8 billion tonnes by 2025 for only urban cities. This is largely attributed to material consumption levels that are high and economic growth as well as urbanization. Third-world countries normally experience infrastructural inadequacies that significantly affect the supply chain of recycling and waste management. Developed countries, however, have recorded outstanding success through investments in technologically developed solutions, effective regulatory frameworks, and waste reduction and recycling schemes. These have compelled them to embrace the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) and extended producer responsibility (EPR) programs. Waste management in Asia is closely linked with the SDGs, namely, Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities) and Goal 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). Effective waste management is at the center of mitigating environmental pollution, protecting public health, and promoting sustainable urbanization. While industrialized nations are concentrating on minimizing waste and advanced treatment technologies, developing nations are leaning toward holistic and decentralized management systems. This review encompasses a number of themes, such as innovations and advancements in waste management, agricultural animal husbandry and waste management, the agriculture products and food industry, waste management strategies and SDG integration in Asian countries, and policy frameworks, technology advances, and institutional arrangements. Asia's waste management sector is currently confronted by a pivotal transformation characterized by enormous disparities between developed and developing nations. Success with sustainable development goals (SDGs) requires the adoption of integrated, inclusive, and innovative approaches reconciling the technical, social, and economic dimensions of waste management processes.

Abstract

This review analyzes different aspects of agriculture, food systems, and sustainable development in Asia, a geographically variable, economically booming, and ecologically very diverse continent. The review considers progress as well as regional systems regarding sustainable development, organic crop, and livestock farming systems along with cropping. It also addresses the consequences of climate change on fish and aquaculture, the control of soil and carbon sequestration, and the effects on the availability of food. Further, the review discusses microbial science in supporting the development of sustainable and resilient food systems, food diversity and quality, while also critically examining the challenges and gains of implementing sustainable agriculture. Asian countries are confronting important development challenges and need to move toward sustainable and resilient food systems immediately. While significant progress has been achieved in reducing poverty, ensuring food security, and modernizing agricultural, numerous challenges still remain, including the impacts of climate change, environmental degradation, loss of biodiversity, and malnutrition. The prevailing production-focused models of input intensification as well as linear resource use cannot adequately address these interlinked challenges. Sustainable agriculture and food systems in Asia can be achieved through a multi-dimensional strategy. This would include developing and instituting policy systems that make green and inclusive practice more effective, prioritizing the benefits to the smallholder farmer. Technology and social innovation, such as upscaling climate-smart agriculture, digitalization, and knowledge-sharing mechanisms, are essential for enhancing productivity and resilience. Promoting regional and global cooperation through cross-border association, emergency funds, and knowledge transfer mechanisms is essential in order to mitigate shocks and stimulate development. Also essential are strategic public and private investments to modernize infrastructure, support research programs, and grant vulnerable populations autonomy. Ultimately, an overall approach that fosters cooperation between governments and people is essential for propelling sustainable food and agriculture systems towards a more resilient world.
