Description: Climate Change and Crop Production by Noureddine Benkeblia Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book presents an overview of agroecology within the framework of climate change. It covers elements of the changing climate and their impacts on crop production and agroecosystems, reporting on how plants will cope with these changes, and how we can mitigate these negative impacts to ensure food production for the growing population. Publisher Description Presenting an overview of agroecology within the framework of climate change, this book looks at the impact of our changing climate on crop production and agroecosystems, reporting on how plants will cope with these changes, and how we can mitigate these negative impacts to ensure food production for the growing population. It explores the ways that farmers can confront the challenges of climate change, with contributed chapters from around the world demonstrating the different challenges associated with differing climates. Examples are provided of the approaches being taken right now to expand the ecological, physiological, morphological, and productive potential of a range of crop types. Describes the effects and responses of the macro and micro levels of crops under the different components of climate changeReports on the adaptation and resilience of food production systems within the changing climateCovers how plants cope with the changing climate including physiological, biochemical, phenotype, and ecosystem responsesProvides an in-depth discussion on the importance of agricultural education connected to climate changeGiving readers a greater understanding of the mechanisms of plant resilience to climate change, this book provides new insights into improving the productivity of an individual crop species as well as bringing resistance and resiliency to the entire agroecosystem. It offers a strong foundation for changing research and education programs so that they build the resistance and resilience that will be needed for the uncertain climate future ahead.
