Abstract: | The term ‘indicator’ is often vague and heterogeneous, and its dynamic characteristics make it highly variable over time and
space. Based on reviews and synthesis, this study visualizes phenomena and highlights the trend of indicator selection criteria,
development methods, validation evaluation strategies for improvement. In contextualization of the intensification of agriculture
and climate change, we proposed a set of indicators for assessing agricultural sustainability in Bangladesh based on theoretically
proposed and practically applied indicators by researchers. Also, this article raises several issues of indicator system development
and presents a summary after due consideration. Finally, we underline multi-stakeholders’ participation in agricultural sustainability
assessment. |
