Crops Engineered for Climate Resilience

“As we confront the challenges of climate change, adapting and mitigating its effects in the agricultural sector becomes imperative to meet global food production demands. While various practices show promise, a cohesive international agreement or national policy framework is still lacking. In this context, timely actions can empower countries to establish the necessary policies, financial support, and scientific initiatives to address these challenges effectively.

Crops Engineered for Climate Resilience offers crucial insights from some of the world’s foremost climate scientists, tackling pressing issues related to climate change and agriculture. The book explores the causes of climate change, its role as a contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, and its multifaceted impacts on agriculture, including regional variations and effects on crop protection from pests and diseases.

By presenting a comprehensive analysis of adaptation strategies and mitigation efforts, this book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the road ahead. It aims to equip researchers, policymakers, and agricultural professionals with the knowledge needed to foster climate-resilient practices, ensuring food security in an increasingly unpredictable world.”
