Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and
Aquaculture – Kṛṣi–Paśupālana Vijñānam
(Indigenous knowledge in farming, livestock, and fisheries)
Kr̥ṣi (agriculture), Paśupālana (animal husbandry), and Vyāpāra (trade) were sacred duties rooted in dharma and harmony with nature. As part of Vārta, a core ancient science, they emphasized sustainability, ethics, and community welfare. Kr̥ṣiśāstra guided ecological farming through soil care, water conservation, and seasonal cycles. Paśupālana fostered symbiosis with animals for food, labour, and manure. Vyāpāra promoted fair, dhārmic trade for mutual benefit. This integrated rural model nurtured self-sufficiency and spiritual balance.
We invite abstracts and papers exploring (but not limited to) the following areas:
• Vārta: The Fourth Pillar of Knowledge in Indian Tradition
• Kr̥ṣiśāstra: Traditional Indian Agricultural Sciences

• Paśupālana: Symbiotic Animal Husbandry
• Spiritual and Cultural Dimensions of Animal Care
