This paper discusses sustainable agricultural practices and environmental protection in Udaipur district, India. The study uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to collect data from primary and secondary sources. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics and content analysis. The study found that sustainable agricultural practices are being implemented in the district, including the use of organic and natural fertilizers, crop rotation, conservation tillage, and water-efficient irrigation systems. However, challenges to achieving sustainable agriculture and environmental protection still exist, such as limited access to funding and technology, lack of awareness among farmers, and inadequate government policies and regulations.
