Crop Stress Management and Global Climate Change

About this book

Climate change will pose many challenges to agriculture in the future, but by taking an integrative approach to predicting and adapting to change, Crop Stress Management and Global Climate Change will inspire researchers to turn those challenges into opportunities. Both biotic and abiotic stresses occur at various stages of plant development and frequently more than one stress concurrently affects the crop. Stresses result in both universal and definite effects on plant growth and development.

Crop Stress Management and Global Climate Change provides an integrated view of the challenges and opportunities that will face agriculture in the future as a result of climate change. It discusses how the stresses resulting from climate change can be overcome by assessing, measuring and predicting environmental changes and stresses, identifying opportunities and adapting to change and responding to multifactorial change. Climate change will pose many challenges to agriculture in the future, but by taking an integrative approach to predicting and adapting to change.
