Kaveri Agro Ltd funds a project that gives drip irrigation kits to small farmers to cut water use and raise yields, and its CSR committee must map it to the single SDG whose core theme is ending hunger, achieving food security and promoting sustainable agriculture. Which SDG should it map to?

The project maps to SDG 2, Zero Hunger, whose core theme is ending hunger, achieving food security and promoting sustainable agriculture. SDG 6 deals with water and sanitation access, so although drip irrigation saves water, the stated agricultural and food security focus points to SDG 2.

  1. ASDG 1 - No Poverty
  2. BSDG 2 - Zero HungerCorrect
  3. CSDG 6 - Clean Water and Sanitation
  4. DSDG 13 - Climate Action

Explanation

SDG 2 is Zero Hunger and explicitly covers food security and sustainable agriculture. SDG 6 concerns water and sanitation access and is the tempting distractor because irrigation uses water, but the stated core theme in the question is food security and agriculture.
