Engineering Salt Sustainability: Agariyas in Focus

Eshna Agrawal, Jitendra Malviya


Abstract: India, the world's third - largest salt producer, relies heavily on the Agariya community, primarily located in Gujarat, for its salt production. Despite their crucial role, Agariyas face numerous challenges, including labor - intensive work conditions, economic exploitation, and increasing vulnerability to climate change. This paper explores the socioeconomic, environmental, and cultural dimensions of salt farming in India, with a particular focus on the Agariya community. It proposes sustainable solutions to ensure the long - term viability of salt farming.


Keywords: Salt Farming, Agariyas, Gujarat, Sustainability, Climate Change, Socioeconomic Challenges
