by Mukhtar Ahmed (Editor), Claudio O. Stockle (Editor) 

This book is a comprehensive volume dealing with climate change impacts on agriculture, and which can help guide the redesign of agricultural management and cropping systems. It includes mitigation techniques such as use of bioenergy crops, fertilizer and manure management, conservation tillage, crop rotations, cover crops and cropping intensity, irrigation, erosion control, management of drained wetlands, lime amendments, residue management, biochar and biotechnology. It also includes

  • Management of GHG emissions
  • Crop models as decision support tools
  • QTL analysis
  • Crop water productivity
  • Impacts of drought on cereal crops
  • Silvopastoral systems
  • Changing climate impact on wheat-based cropping systems of South Asia
  • Phosphorous dynamics under changing climate
  • Role of bioinformatics

The focus of the book is climate change mitigation to enhance sustainability in agriculture. We present various kinds of mitigation options, ways to minimize GHG emissions and better use of the latest techniques in conservation and environmental-sustainability.
