Description
Agriculture and climate change are deeply intertwined.
The effects of global warming on food supply are dire, whilst world population is increasing.
It's time to change the way agriculture affects the environment, and vice versa.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture are an important contributor to climate change, especially when emissions from agriculture's impact on land-use changes are included.
Covering a broad range of issues related to climate change and agriculture, the book summarizes the different aspects of vulnerability, adaptation and amelioration of climate change in respect to plants, crops, soil and microbes for the sustainability of the agricultural sector.
