Acerca deste livro eletrónico

""Climate Smart Crops"" addresses the critical challenge of ensuring global food security amidst climate change by exploring the roles of both genetically improved and naturally resilient crops. It delves into how plant breeding and sustainable agricultural practices can mitigate climate change's impact on crop production, emphasizing a multifaceted approach. The book highlights the potential synergy between genetically modified crops (GMOs), engineered for drought resistance and heat tolerance, and naturally resilient varieties cultivated through traditional farming.

The book examines how climate change affects crop yields and introduces the science behind genetically improved crops while also addressing the ethical considerations surrounding GMOs. It further explores naturally resilient crop varieties, including traditional farming practices and underutilized species with inherent adaptive traits.

Case studies from around the world illustrate successful implementations of climate-smart agriculture, demonstrating practical applications of crop resilience and climate change adaptation.

The book progresses systematically, starting with the fundamentals of climate change and its effects on agriculture, then exploring genetically improved crops and naturally resilient varieties. It concludes with policy recommendations and future directions, drawing upon peer-reviewed literature and data from international organizations. This comprehensive approach makes ""Climate Smart Crops"" valuable for students, researchers, and policymakers seeking a balanced understanding of climate-smart agriculture.
