Sustainable development is defined as development that meets the needs of the present so as not to jeopardize the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainable agricultural production arose as a need to devise ways of agricultural production that do not degrade natural resources and at the same time bring high yields and incomes to agricultural producers. Malnutrition is a condition that occurs as a result of insufficient or unbalanced intake of carbohydrates, proteins and other nutrients, which negatively affects the functioning of the organism. Diseases represent any deviation from the state of health and have their characteristic symptoms, affect the whole organism or are limited to individual organs. Poverty is the lack of material goods needed to meet the most important needs of each individual, family or larger social group. These three concepts belong to the group of the biggest problems that humanity is facing today. Mankind has been working on solving these problems for many years and still without excessive progress. This paper is an attempt to answer the question of who will win the race between sustainable development based on sustainable agriculture, on the one hand, and malnutrition, disease and poverty, on the other. The real question is: Will there ever be a winner or is this a dead end race?
