Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Indian agriculture has achieved remarkable progress over the decades. Since gaining independence, the sector has witnessed significant advancements in food grain production-driven not just by the expansion of cultivated areas but also by the adoption of innovative technologies. Food grain output has increased from 50.82 million tonnes in 1950-51 to an impressive 328.85 million tonnes in 2023-24. This substantial growth has been largely fueled by increased use of inputs, technology-driven productivity improvements, widespread extension services, better farming practices, and, most importantly, the resilience and dedication of Indian farmers, particularly since the onset of the Green Revolution in the late 1960s.Despite this progress, Indian agriculture continues to face multiple challenges. The rapid expansion has led to issues such as the unsustainable exploitation of natural resources like land, water, and biodiversity; increased vulnerability to pests and insects; overuse of agrochemicals; and adverse environmental impacts.To ensure sustainable agricultural development, there is a pressing need to establish a supportive ecosystem through sound policies, institutional reforms, regulatory frameworks, and investments in advanced technologies. Public and private sector collaboration in agri-business will be crucial.This book aims to explore the current agricultural landscape and outline strategic approaches for the Amrit Kaal, aligning with the vision of Viksit Bharat and Atma Nirbhar Bharat by 2047, with a special focus on agriculture and allied sectors.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - India is an agriculture economy where land and water are two key natural resources upon which farmers depend for their livelihoods and development. Farmers' development depends upon interactions of these and other resources, institutions, actions and policies and their ultimate outcomes. It would be naive to perceive that all rural poverty problems could be solved through improving the poor's access to water alone through development of irrigated area in rainfed conditions. However, though water is only a single element in the poverty equation, it plays a disproportionately powerful role through its wider impacts on such factors as food and other essential agricultural production. Water is one of the most critical inputs for agriculture. The availability of adequate water for irrigation is a key factor in achieving higher productivity. However, the poor efficiency of conventional irrigation systems has not only reduced the anticipated outcome of investments towards water resource development, but has also resulted in environmental problems like water logging and soil salinity, thereby adversely affecting crop yields.World is facing many challenges; prominent among these are climate change, environmental degradation, sustainable development and food security for growing population. Climate change affects the world's water in complex ways. From unpredictable rainfall patterns to shrinking ice sheets, rising sea levels, floods and droughts, most impacts of climate change come down to water. The effects are already visible and will be catastrophic unless we act now. Through education, innovation and adherence to our climate commitments, and to secure water for agriculture sector keeping in view the Sustainable Development Goals, we can make the necessary changes in agriculture practices/methods to make climate smart/climate re-silent agriculture as well as self-reliant and climate smart farmers. As a result, water is required to be stored and utilized for meeting the demands of different sectors throughout the year. Efficient water management requires sustainable development of the available surface and ground water resources and their optimal utilizations including enhanced use of micro-irrigation system. In order to meet the challenge of Food Security, first, there is a need to understand the need of water security. Therefore, three national interaction meets were organized to deliberate on climate change and its impact on water cycle, water Security, and that in turn on Food Security.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - It is well known that the impacts of climate change are tangible and hence there can be no debate about the need for appropriate adaptation measures, on a priority basis. However, it is equally important to recognize the fact that adaptation measures actually represent a dynamic synthesis of interventions pertaining to multiple systems. These are particularly of water, soil characteristics, genotypic and phenotypic variations and their expressions, age-correlated biochemical changes aligned with planting schedules and favorable weather/climate conditions. Nutrients, occurrence and distribution of associated vegetation including crop mixes also influence productivity. The overarching aspect of farming practice wields significant influence on the outcome and hence it is important to be clear about the particular focus of the investigations being carried out and reported in a suitable manner. It is essential to recognize that scientific research in agriculture in India has always produced valuable results of direct relevance to her people. Importantly, preparedness to tackle disasters due to inclement weather system has prominently featured on the agenda. The recent focus on climate change and impacts has provided the necessary impetus to reorganize the framework of investigation to capture the specifics of such impacts. In this context, the importance of micro climate variations too viz-a-viz the larger scales of impacts cannot be overemphasized. It will be useful to also help characterize natural variations versus artificially induced variations, helping us understand the complexities of individual and synergistic impacts too. Obviously, the limits and limitations of models could determine the spread and depth of the outcomes of investigations. Empirical evidences to reinforce assumptions have to also be documented with utmost care; guided by an understanding of the limits of tolerance, limiting factors, and the precautionary principle especially in the public policy interface. The present volume therefore, showcases these strands with the fond hope that they will stimulate further thinking and enable appropriate action.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Human activity is changing the global environment at an unprecedented rate while humanity faces a range of complex and interrelated challenges to local, regional and global development, human security and politics. Food security ranks high on the science, policy and development agendas. However, most research linking global change and food systems examines the impact of climate change on agricultural production, or the impact of agriculture on land use, pollution and biodiversity, overlooking interactions with other aspects of the food system - such as food processing, packaging, transportation and consumption and employment derived from these activities.This book demonstrates that new threats to food security which arise from environmental change require more than simply a focus on agricultural practices - what is needed is an integrated food system approach. The authors point out that the process of adapting food systems to global environmental change is not simply a search for technological solutions to increase agricultural yields. Tradeoffs across multiple scales among food system outcomes are a prevalent feature of globalized food systems. Within food systems, there are key underexplored areas that are both sensitive to environmental change and crucial to understanding its implications for food security and adaptation strategies.The authors assert that technical prescriptions alone will not efficiently manage the food security challenge. This book is their contribution to a new paradigm, which addresses food systems holistically by engaging researchers in multiple disciplines to understand the causes and drivers of vulnerability.…
