The impact of climate change on Indian agriculture

Abstract

Climate change poses a significant threat to agriculture worldwide, and India, with its vast agricultural sector, is particularly vulnerable. The effects of climate change on Indian agriculture are manifold, ranging from altered weather patterns to changing pest and disease dynamics. This article explores these impacts and discusses potential adaptation strategies to mitigate the adverse effects on farmers and food security. Climate change is increasingly seen as the major threat to the food security and sustainability of agriculture in India. Keeping in view of the importance of this problem, we initiated a focus on ‘The Impact of Climate Change on Indian Agriculture’.
