About
Debashis Chakraborty is a leading researcher in soil science, with a focus on the critical nexus between soil health, food security, and human well-being. His work addresses how sustainable soil management can help India meet the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly zero hunger, good health, and no poverty. In his highly cited 2022 paper (94 citations), Chakraborty synthesizes the key features of Indian soils and argues that healthy soil is foundational to human health and environmental sustainability. He highlights the paradox of India’s self-sufficiency in food production alongside persistent challenges in nutrition and poverty alleviation. His research underscores the need for integrated policies that link soil conservation with public health outcomes. Chakraborty’s contributions are vital for policymakers, agronomists, and development practitioners seeking evidence-based strategies to build resilient food systems. By bridging soil science and sustainable development, his work has a tangible impact on both academic discourse and real-world agricultural practices in India and beyond.
