Abstract

This paper explores the role of local governance in promoting sustainable agricultural practices and enhancing food
security. With increasing global population and environmental degradation, local governments play a crucial role in
implementing policies and initiatives to address these issues. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing research,
the paper investigates the challenges, opportunities, and strategies e mployed by local governments in various
regions. Methodologically, the paper evaluates case studies, comparing different local governance models and their
impacts on sustainable agriculture. The findings suggest that while local governments can significant ly influence
agricultural sustainability, challenges such as resource constraints and policy coordination remain.
