Adopting sustainable agricultural practices in developing countries has several socio-economic implications. It can enhance food security, reduce poverty by improving smallholder farmers' livelihoods, conserve the environment by minimizing harmful practices, build climate change resilience, facilitate access to markets and value chains, and promote knowledge transfer and capacity building for rural development. These implications vary depending on local factors and can contribute to long-term sustainability and well-being.

the socio-economic implications of adopting sustainable agricultural practices in developing countries are multi-faceted, encompassing food security, poverty alleviation, environmental conservation, climate change resilience, market access, gender equity, and knowledge transfer. By embracing sustainability in agriculture, developing countries can create a positive ripple effect that promotes inclusive and sustainable development for their communities

Sustainable agriculture embraces practices that aim at long term agricultural productivity rather than short term gains. This in effect will have significant consequences on socio-economic status of developing countries. By implication, adjusting to the goals of sustainable agriculture may result in short term inconvenience to the livelihood of farmers in developing countries, but people will begin appreciate the positive implications on the long run.

Sustainable agriculture integrates three main goals environmental health, economic profitability, and social equity. A variety of philosophies, policies and practices have contributed to these goals, but a few common themes and principles weave through most definitions of sustainable agriculture.By adopting sustainable practices, farmers will reduce their reliance on nonrenewable energy, reduce chemical use and save scarce resources. Keeping the land healthy and replenished can go a long way when considering the rising population and demand for food. Based on the literature reviewed, the factors influencing adoption were classified in three groups, namely economic factors, institutional factors, farmers' perceptions on sustainability and environmental and moral consciousness, farm characteristics, and farmers' perceptions on climate change and climate change risks. A large series of variables have been described to classify an agricultural system: type of tenancy and size of farm (percentage of common land, percentage of land on private property, size of the farm in relation to number of employees, output value or area under agricultural activity); employment of workers. Adoption of sustainable agriculture innovations is acknowledged to be an effective response to agro-ecological challenges, such as climate change, pests, drought, natural catastrophes, and food insecurity. However, its level of dissemination is still low across the world, particularly in the Global South. Sustainable agriculture practices and systems improve farmers' food security by diversifying their sources of food and income. They also increase food security for families living in agriculture. Sustainable agriculture is a type of agriculture that focuses on producing long-term crops and livestock while having minimal effects on the environment. This type of agriculture tries to find a good balance between the need for food production and the preservation of the ecological system within the environment.
