s U S TA I N A BLE DEV P TSustainable development refers to a mode of human development in which resource use aims to meet human needs while ensuring the sustainability of natural systems and the environment, so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come.

Agricultural Technologies
• improve productivity and soil and water conservation, and maintain reasonable costs of food and fiber.
• improving soil fertility,• improving water availability
and efficiency of use• reducing food losses• enabling farmers to
modernize as this becomes feasible to them.
The Role of Technology in Sustainable Development
![Page 11: Sustainable development & the role of technology](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102322/58f9af79760da3da068bad92/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Energy Technologies• Technologies to provide and improve
energy services for developing world populations, more efficient biomass stoves to reduce fuel use and reduce the hazardous smoke emissions, simple motor-driven systems for pumping water or grinding grain to reduce the burden of these physically demanding tasks on women, and energy-efficient pumps, fertilizers, and mechanical traction to improve agricultural productivity.

Environmental Technologies• For many developing countries, provision of
basic water, sewer, and refuse disposal services are major environmental priorities. These are the areas where spending on environmental technologies is concentrated.
• Developing countries need more sanitary services systems serving rural and urban areas.
• Electric power, chemical, petroleum refining, steel, and paper, food, textile, and other process industries are potential major buyers of environmental technology.

Technologies for Local Development
• Conducted of community-based projects for resource efficient residential architecture, solar greenhouses, small farm systems, farmers markets, resource recovery from municipal solid waste, wastewater treatment, energy generation, and health care systems.

Communication Technology
• Communication and information technologies are playing an increasingly important role in business, trade, health, and education.
