Perspectives on Climate Smart Agriculture
Agriculture is one of India's most significant industries, serving half of the nation. Climate is a big factor for agricultural production. Agriculture is primarily rain-fed and subjected by small-scale farmers. Rain-fed crops are 48% of the overall area under food crops and 68% on non-food crops. The complete worldwide agricultural production in India accounts for 7.39%. India's total emissions from all GHGs in 2014, according to the World Resource Institutes, total about 3,200 MTCO2 eq out of 48,892 MTCO2s eq worldwide in 2014. Agriculture is ascribed 626.86 2 MTCO2 eq of the Indian greenhouse gas emissions averaged in 2014 of 3,200 MTCO2 eq. This chapter reviews the concept of sustainable agriculture, establishes the link between climate change and agriculture, the origination of climate-smart agriculture, and relevant practical approaches, case studies, and geospatial assessment methods responding to climate-smart agriculture.
