This book examines the current state of food security and its intersection with climate change, delving into the issues that impact both. It highlights the actions necessary to ensure sufficient food availability in the future, adopting a broad approach to explore novel approaches, techniques, and genetic resources from diverse crop relatives. The author argues that agriculture can still overcome the substantial challenges posed by climate change.

Food Security and Climate Change integrates various climatic challenges such as rising carbon emissions, increased temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, droughts, and their combined effects on planting environments, crop adaptation, production, and management. It explores individual factors resulting from these changes and discusses the role of plant genetic resources, breeding technologies for crops, biotechnologies, and integrated farm management practices in enhancing food grain production.

Targeting researchers, scientists, students, and policymakers engaged with agricultural science and technology, as well as those concerned about climate change’s impact on the environment and the food industry, this book is an essential resource. It provides a comprehensive overview of the complexities involved in ensuring global food security amidst ongoing climatic shifts.
