"This study shows that diversifying the crops that a country grows can be an effective way to adapt its food-production systems to the growing influence ofclimatechange," said Davis. "And it adds to the evidence that increasing the production of alternative grains in India can offer benefits f...
The projected rise in annual peak temperatures, similar to those now experienced only in the earth's hottest microヽlimates, could make it nearly impossible for humans to engage in agriculture in India and several other parts of the world. Climate change affects yields of crops, livestock, ...
Here, we examined the sensitivity of winter cropping systems to inter-annual climate variability in a local market and subsistence-based agricultural system in central India, a data-rich validation site, in order to identify the climate parameters to which winter crops – mainly wheat and pulses ...
Smallholder farmers managing climate risk in India: 2. Is it climate-smart?Climate changeSimulationAPSIMRiceMaizeCottonResearch about adaptation of crops to climate change at a regional scale is based on simplifying assumptions about current and future weather and about farmer management practices. ...
The water requirement for rice production is high compared to other staple crops. Water availability is getting less and there is a need to produce more rice with less water by applying water-saving irrigation treatments such as alternate wetting and drying (AWD). Rice grown under AWD in a ...
The real yield of several crops in India has, however, been growing over time. The release and adoption of new crop varieties, a rise in the area irrigated, the use of additional fertilizers and pesticides, greater mechanization of agricultural operations, and other adaptation strategies, have ...
In India agricultural production is often determined by the whims of nature. The climate change is expected to resultin higher temperatures and rainfall. The higher expected temperature might lower the yields. However, at the same time, higher rainfall could enhance growing period of crops. Also ...
Climate change and groundwater: India's opportunities for mitigation and adaptation For millennia, India has been using surface storages and gravity flow to irrigate its crops. During the last 40 years, however, India has witnessed a decli... Shah,Tushaar - 《Environmental Research Letters》 被...
