Ethical Dilemmas of the Relationship Between Sustainable Agriculture and the Environment: Challenges and Solutions—Review

Home Agriculture, a key pillar of human existence, faces fundamental ethical challenges. The authors of this article thought about these dilemmas and set a research goal - to examine the current state and possible solutions, with the goal of estimating the possible future development of agricultural ethics. Authors, after conducting research and qualitative analysis of expert sources relevant to the topic, reflect on the links between our decisions, agriculture and the state of the environment. The qualitative analysis conducted shows that the anthropocentric strand focuses on human needs and places them at the center of ethical considerations and that this approach can be perceived as outdated from an ethical perspective today. Science, on the other hand, can also provide knowledge to improve agricultural production and provide food for the growing human population. Environmental protection must be seen as a moral obligation for humans.
