Adaptive Strategies for Agricultural Sustainability in Changing Climates
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Recent years have seen many efforts to increase the agricultural production. Those improvements were achieved through sustainable techniques and practices. While using the modern techniques, we observe they are the causes for degradation of natural resources. India is one of the countries having agroclimatic zones with diversified seasons, crops, and farming systems. At the same time, it is also a vulnerable section of climatic changes. It was reported that 2/3 of the sown area is drought-prone and about 40 million hectares are flood-prone. The nation faces many prominent effects of climatic changes. To minimize these effects, we must adapt integrated systems. Sustainable agriculture holds great potential to replenish ecological damage, to improve agricultural productivity, to meet global & national food security, and to improve farmers’ livelihoods. Modern sustainable methodology helps to reduce vulnerability with uncertain climatic conditions. But sustainable agriculture alone will not be sufficient to reduce agro-eco-socio problems.
