I am Ms. Meena Pandey from Nepal and the ambassador for Asia. Taking this opportunity, I would like to request you to recommend me as the ‘The most inspirational ambassador of the 26th Eco-generation Regional Ambassadors’. Link for recommending: https://tunza.eco-generation.org/competitonApplicationForm.jsp Sample of Recommendation: Meena Pandey is involved in non-governmental agencies creating awareness on having a peaceful environment. She is involved in projects such as planting of trees, use of 3Rs. Recently she conducted ‘Gift a plant to the Mother Earth’ campaign which was such a huge project, by seeing her passionate activities in the environment she has inspired so many young minds towards conserving the environment. She has been very much devoted and her reports were also relevant, awaring and recommendable. I therefore recommend Meena Pandey as the most inspirational 26th Eco-generation regional Ambassador.

The paper was published after rigorous peer review by multiple set of reviewers. The paper work was completed on 11 August, 2020 and the comments of the reviewers was addressed on 13 March, 2021, and paper was published on 10 April, 2021. Sustainable intensification of agriculture is a good approach for reducing the yield gap without exacerbating the current condition of the environmental components, which is a big challenge for agriculture in the modern world. This review provides a summary of the role and approaches of sustainable intensification in agriculture which offer ways to increase crop production and create long-term sustainability in agriculture production. New scientific techniques in agronomic practices, as well as improved farm mechanization, are helping to boost resource use efficiency in sustainable crop production. The sustainable agricultural intensification is necessary to increase the agricultural productivity under the changing and adverse climatic conditions while maintaining healthy production practices.
