Abstract: This paper aims to present an operational framework for sustainable agricultural development at the local or regional level. Sustainability targets are introduced by using critical threshold values for policy- relevant variables of different nature. The paper introduces then a so-called flag model to identify feasible and/or desirable policy scenarios. The approach is illustrated by means of an extensive case study on the Bagmati region in Nepal.
