Описание: Climate Change and Agricultural Ecosystems summarizes the causative factors of climate change related with agriculture, soil, plants and on the other side, and discusses the relevant resuling mitigation process. . Agriculture ecosystem includes surroundings factors of the area where agriculture experiences direct or indirect interaction with the plants, animals and microbes present. Changes in climatic conditions influence all the factors of agriculture ecosystem, which can potentially adversely affect their productivity. In order fully understand the impact of climate change focus is needed on the unexplored causative agents and mitigating factors. This book summarizes the different aspects of vulnerability, adaptation and amelioration of climate change in respect to plants (crops, medicinal plants), soil and microbes for sustainability of agricultural sector and ultimately food security under futuristic scenarios. It also focuses on the utilization of information technology for the sustainability of agriculture sector along with the capacity and adaptability of agricultural societies under climate changing scenarios. Climate change and Agricultural Ecosystems explores recent development and includes coverage of:. . . The role of chemicals fertilizers, environmental deposition, xenobiotics in climate change. The impact of climate change on plants, soil and microflora and agriculture ecosystem. The mitigation of climate change by the sustainable methods. Role of computational modelling in Climate change mitigation. . The book incorporates both theoretical and practical aspects, and serves as base line information for future research. This book will be useful to those working in areas of global climate change, environmental sciences, Soil sciences, agricultural microbiology, plant pathology, and agronomy.
Описание: The Philippine economy has grown rapidly since 2010, but despite this growth, poverty and inequality remain high. Two-thirds of the poor live in rural areas, and the weak performance of the agriculture sector has contributed to the slow improvement in livelihoods. The challenge for agriculture will further increase, with climate change posing a growing threat to the sector. But agricultural transformation to spur sustained growth and reduce poverty is still possible under climate change with aggressive institutional reforms and implementation of the right mix of policies and programmes. The identification of the suitable policy and programme combination requires an accurate assessment of the key drivers of agricultural growth and food security; the impacts of climate change on agriculture and the overall economy; and the effectiveness of policies for adaptation and growth. This book addresses these big issues, focusing on enhancing the adaptation capacity of the Philippine agriculture sector. It is designed to provide a much-needed base of knowledge and menu of policy options to support decision- and policymaking on agriculture, climate change, and food security. The volume uses newly generated data, modelling outputs, and innovative analyses to provide a scientific basis for a variety of adaptation measures under different sets of climate change scenarios to guide decision-makers in strategic planning and policy formulation.

Описание: While global warming and its consequences on humanity are being fiercely debated at the global scale, deliberate and pragmatic reflections on the subject in Sub-Sahara Africa remain muted, though this phenomenon is negatively impacting the livelihoods of her people. The unprecedented degradation of her natural resources, i.e., water, biodiversity, and soils are seen to be intricately linked to her increasing inability to meet the basic needs of her people. This book examines how global climate change impacts on Sub-Sahara Africa, the measures and strategies that would be used in facing it and actions presently implemented in combating it. A pragmatic community/state engagement synergy on climate change mitigation initiatives that rewards best practices is critical to its success. Though investments in research, technical know-how, dedicated commitment and dissemination mechanisms would be inevitable to draw the continent from the precipice, the role of regulatory enforcement mechanisms and a legal framework addressing land use rights permissible within given landscapes is seen to be central to the success of this endeavor.
