<p style="text-align: justify;">This book delves into the vital topics of food security and the sustainability of India&#39;s natural resources in light of projected climate change. As agroecosystems are sites of significant human-natural world interaction, global climate change is likely to impact the resource base, crop productivity, input use efficiency, and overall profitability of agricultural production systems to a great extent. However, the adverse effects of climate change can be lessened through mitigation and adaptation strategies, which are increasingly important due to India&#39;s growing population and food demand.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">This book covers possible sources and sinks of greenhouse gases in the Indian context, including the potential of soil carbon sequestration, crop pest and soil management, and scientific livestock management as mitigation and adaptation options. The book also explores the fundamentals of the greenhouse effect and the mechanisms by which soil nutrient availability changes due to CO2 fertilization. It includes schematic diagrams, tables, and graphs to illustrate the concepts discussed.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The book is useful for researchers, farm managers, policy makers, and students engaged in climate change-related studies. It also highlights the potential for Indian farmers to earn carbon credits through best management practices and carbon credits trading, providing an additional incentive for adopting sustainable practices.</p>
