Sustainable Cropping Systems Under Changing Climate explores the intersection of agricultural practices, climate change, and crop production. The book provides crucial insights into how agricultural researchers and practitioners can navigate the challenges of maintaining crop productivity within diverse cropping systems, especially under varying climate scenarios. It emphasizes the real-world applications of these insights and offers strategies to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change on agriculture. This comprehensive work discusses the impacts of changing climate conditions on diverse cropping practices, identifies challenges, and proposes effective mitigation strategies.
It aims to develop resilient, adaptive cropping systems to ensure food security for a growing global population.
