Sustainable Agriculture

Adaptation Strategies to Address Climate Change by 2050

About this book

Ever-increasing population growth, combined with ongoing climate change signals that agriculture will face great challenges in ensuring global food security by 2050. Additionally, climate change-driven variations in mean sea level, wave conditions, storm surge, droughts, and river flows could have serious effects on agriculture and other sectors. Considering these factors and the extremely high value and necessity of agriculture worldwide, effective adaptation measures underpinned by reliable climate change impact assessments are essential to conserve soil and water resources and ensure food security. Sustainable Agriculture: Adaptation Strategies to Address Climate Change by 2050 provides a thorough examination of these issues, and presents in-depth analysis, practical case studies, and numerous examples of adaptation options throughout for various regions of the world.

Features:

  • Presents up-to-date, scientifically robust information on climate change projections in Europe, Asia, America, Africa, and Australia
  • Provides pathways to sustainable agricultural options rather than just defining the climate change issue
  • Includes case studies and practical examples throughout the world
  • Presents a framework by which policymakers can begin implementing strategies for improving agricultural productivity
