com/opinion/fighting-hunger- needs-fighting-climate-change/ 2279369/ - In the intro, mention figure mention in SDG India Index 2020-21 specific to SDG-2.
- In the body discuss the role of agriculture in ensuring food safety and addressing the hunger crisis. In the next part, mention the challenges agriculture faces from climate change. In the suggestion mention crop diversification, climate-smart interventions like conservation agriculture, organic farming and agro-ecological approaches, modifying consumer behaviour, minimising waste etc.
- Conclude by mentioning the need for transformation towards sustainable, nutritious and resilient food systems to achieve the goal of zero hunger.

Vishal
Decent attempt, in introduction you can use some data from recent SDG report- 34.7% children aged under five in India are stunted; 40.5% children between 6-59 months are anaemic; 50.3% of pregnant women between 15-49 years are anaemic; children aged 0-4 years are underweight.
Next part is fine, also mention effects of green revolution, subsidized power/irrigation, use of excessive fertilizers and pesticides on agriculture and climate change. You can avoid points about distribution etc.
In steps, points mentioned are fine, you can add some of these-
Crop diversification, incentivising farmers,
Climate-smart interventions – give examples like conservation agriculture(zero-tillage or no-till farming, crop rotation, in-situ crop harvest residue management/mulching, etc, and industrial uses like baling and bio-fuel production)
Organic farming and agro-ecological approaches can effectively address the environmental concerns while ensuring food security and nutrition
Natural farming practices (can give examples)
Modifying consumer behaviour to transform Indian food systems and correlate positively with crop and diet diversity
Desired staple crops that are rich in essential micronutrients like Iron, Zinc, etc.
Winning the fight against food loss and waste
Shifting towards a circular economy
This section is the core demand of the question, need to address in a bit of detail. You can concise other parts.
Read some other answers. Keep writing. 🙂

Decent attempt, link between climate change- agriculture- hunger is good. In introduction you can use some data from recent report by Niti Ayog.
In measures, suggest some concrete agriculture related steps- this is a core demand of the question and try to avoid vague points here. Some points you can add- Climate-smart interventions – give examples like conservation agriculture(zero-tillage or no-till farming, crop rotation, in-situ crop harvest residue management/mulching, etc, and industrial uses like baling and bio-fuel production)
,agro-forestry, integrated farming systems, Natural farming practices (can give examples), Modifying consumer behaviour to transform Indian food systems and correlate positively with crop and diet diversity, Desired staple crops that are rich in essential micronutrients like Iron, Zinc, etc., Winning the fight against food loss and waste, Shifting towards a circular economy etc
Implementing Paris Agreement, reducing GHG are generic points which fits everywhere, but you need to write how to do those, use them if you are short on content.
Conclusion is okay. Read some other answers. Keep writing. 🙂

Decent attempt. Introduction is fine. Points responsible for hunger are also good. However, bring out the link between climate change-agriculture-nutrition.
There is a huge contribution of agriculture to nutrition,also empirically established.So, more focus of the answer should be on how to shed climate-harming agri-policies.
Challenges and way forward are fine mention about crop diversification which is the need of the hour especially in areas of subsidized power/irrigation/fertilizers.Rest of the points are fine.
Conclusion is good.

Introduction is fine. In next section mention some anthropogenic reasons of climate change too- subsidised power/ irrigation, excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, monoculture etc
Measures mentioned are fine. You can give some examples of best practices of ZBNF, integrated farming, organic farming etc
Conclusion is good.

Santosh
Your content and knowledge is good, points are also covered but structure is not proper. Some points are repeated for example crop diversification.
Intro is good. After that mention link between climate change and hunger. Climate change impacts agriculture which has an impact on hunger. Then mention all causes of climate change at one place- natural+anthropogenic(residue burning, pesticide use etc). Then suggest all ways to address the threats of climate change at one place- points you have mentioned in start of 2nd para +way forward. Finally conclude.
Your points are good, present them in a coherent manner to maintain the flow of the answer.

There is a huge contribution of agriculture to nutrition,also empirically established.So, more focus of the answer should be on how to shed climate-harming agri-policies.Mention some anthropogenic reasons of climate change too- subsidised power/ irrigation, excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, monoculture etc which can in turn impact on food security.
In steps, points mentioned are fine, you can add some of these-
Crop diversification, incentivising farmers,
Climate-smart interventions- give some examples of steps in conservation agriculture
Natural farming practices (can give examples)
Modifying consumer behaviour to transform Indian food systems and correlate positively with crop and diet diversity
Desired staple crops that are rich in essential micronutrients like Iron, Zinc, etc.
Winning the fight against food loss and waste
The question is not directly asking about measures to combat climate change but how to insulate agriculture from threats of climate change so that it does not impact hunger, so you can avoid points like electric vehicles, renewable energy etc if short on space.
Conclusion is fine. Read some other answers. Keep writing.

Rajlaxmi
Introduction is fine. Relation between climate change and agriculture is also well brought out.Mention some anthropogenic reasons of climate change too- subsidised power/ irrigation, excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, monoculture etc which can in turn impact on food security.
Points under issues look out of place. You can avoid that. Points under suggestions are good. You can add more if space and word limit permit like agro-forestry, integrated farming systems etc
Conclusion is also fine.

You have made a good attempt overall. Try to be more neat and clean. Introduction is good. Link between climate change-agriculture – hunger is also fine. You can keep it a bit concise.
Suggestions are okay, you can add some more concrete measures which are required- crop diversification especially in areas of subsidized power/irrigation etc, organic farming, natural farming, climate-smart interventions – give examples like conservation agriculture(zero-tillage or no-till farming, crop rotation, in-situ crop harvest residue management/mulching, etc, and industrial uses like baling and bio-fuel production) etc
Conclusion is good.
