EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE

IN AGROECOSYSTEM
 The subject of climate change is a relatively new science, and is widely
accepted as an unprecedented man-created calamity that requires more than
immediate action and response to solutions.

Climate change is a complex problem involving varied interactions between

the environment, natural resources (land, crops, animals and water) and peoples.

These interactions are likely to change the ecological and agricultural landscape, and
therefore influence agricultural production Analyses of the issues involved and well
informed opinions clearly indicate that the looming effects of climate change are
potentially awesome.

The predictable effects of increased temperature are apparently varied and many,
whose impacts directly concern the biophysical environment, use of natural
resources, productivity, research and development capacity, health and human
welfare .
 Climate change is inevitable and poses major threats to
agriculture and services to mankind such as food supply.

systems can be identified (Devendra 2007b):
