Sustainable agriculture is defined by USDA as practices that are environmentally friendly, profitable, and good for the rural community.
These practices include many elements that are integral to pollution prevention in agriculture such as: integrated pest management, rotational grazing, soil conservation, and nutrient management. The Georgia AgP2 Program has partnered with the USDA Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program to coordinate the Professional Development Program for Georgia (SARE PDP). This program provides training in sustainable agriculture to professionals throughout the State on these pollution prevention practices.
