Description
Summary:Throughout history, humanity has grappled with the widespread repercussions of pandemics, both economically and socially. The contemporary landscape contending with multifaceted challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic brings to the forefront a need for a thorough examination of its pervasive impact on agriculture and its interconnected sectors. Governments across the globe have responded with a spectrum of non-pharmaceutical interventions, encompassing measures such as social distancing, self-quarantine, and travel restrictions. While these interventions aim to mitigate the spread of the virus, their consequences also extend to vital sectors such as agriculture, that have received limited attention thus far. The disruption of supply chains, coupled with reduced production and distribution, has engendered a cascade of challenges. Notably affected are sectors integral to agriculture, including floriculture, information collection, pisciculture, irrigation facilities, agro-processing units, animal husbandry, labor availability, etc. The current study aims to disentangle the intricacies of challenges faced by agriculture and its allied sectors in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. By unravelling the complexities of this global crisis, it aims to contribute to the academic discourse, fostering a deeper understanding of the implications for sustainable development, economic resilience, and policy information.
