Through this book we have bought together a series of chapters that provide scientific insights to possible implications of climate changes for different important types of crop and fisheries systems, and a discussion of options for adaptive and mitigative management. The book provides recent understanding about the climate change and its effects on agriculture. It also includes information regarding important sector like horticulture and fisheries. It examines the effect of climate change on different cereal crops and discusses different mitigation strategies for climate change effects. Details about the abiotic and biotic stresses in relation to climate change are also discussed. It also presents environmentally safe and recent technologies approaches such as nanotechnology and utilization of underutilized crops under changing climate. The information about climate change trends and crop scenario of temperate and cold arid region of Ladakh, Kashmir has been also discussed in last two chapters. This volume provides a solid foundation for the discussion of climate resilience in agricultural systems and the requirements to keep improving agricultural production.
The book is an excellent resource for researchers, instructors, students in agriculture, horticulture, environmental science, other allied subjects and policymakers.
