Climate change and increased climate variability in terms of rising temperatures, shifting rainfall patterns, and increasing extreme weather events, such as severe drought and devastating floods, pose a threat to the production of agricultural and horticultural crops--a threat this is expected to worsen.
Climate change is already affecting--and is likely to increase--invasive species, pests, and disease vectors, all adversely affecting agri-horticultural crop productivity. Advances in agricultural knowledge, science, and technology will be required to develop improved crop traits, such as temperature, drought, pest, and salt tolerance. This two-volume set gives readers an understanding of the issues and makes suggestions for ways to mitigate adverse climate change effects on crops.
The focus of Volume 1: The Principles and Applications in Horticultural Science is to identify impacts and suggest appropriate and effective adaptation and mitigation strategies. Volume 2: Impact, Adaptation, and Mitigation focuses on the impact of climate change on horticultural crops and offers ways to adapt practices to mitigate adverse effects. Together, the two volumes offer a diverse selection of chapters that address issues of importance to those in the horticulture industry, researchers, faculty, and others.
The two-volume set:
- Provides a recent understanding about climate change effects on horticulture
- Covers unique information regarding important fruit crops, including flowers, spices, and plantation crops
- Serves as an excellent source for researchers to formulate their adaptation and mitigation strategies
- Covers abiotic and biotic stresses in relation to climate change
- Presents environmentally safe and recent technological approaches such as nanotechnology and biodynamics
- Includes case studies
The books are an excellent resource for researchers; instructors; students in agriculture, horticulture, environmental science, and other allied subjects; and policymakers.
