Higher consumption of resources can be seen as a prerequisite to development and urban sprawl in growing countries. Many attempts have been made in order to reduce the exploitation and prevent the exhaustion of natural resources. A similar attempt has been made by the Punjab administration in India that has huge contribution to the food production system of the country. In order to safeguard the depleting ground water and increasing financial strain on the poor farmers, the Punjab Government has diverted its future to agriculture diversification. Since the growth pattern is highly directed by the market demands the approach may raise questions on the food sustainability of the nation. This phenomenon is not limited to agriculture but is also affecting the quality of milk production in the state. Realizing the potential shift in the agricultural pattern and the increasing losses in the food production, this paper tries to detail out the factors leading to existing agricultural and milk production activities and how the existing interventions may affect the future of Punjab. We have referred multiple articles and papers in order to develop a more sustainable and synergic approach to the system, in order to protect the quantity and quality of food produced in the upcoming years of Punjab.
