Addressing climate change impacts through sustainable agricultural solutions: a review

Agriculture is the backbone of the economic development and livelihood of each country worldwide. There is a huge need for growth to sustain rapidly growing populations in many countries. Agriculture contributes to greenhouse gas emissions which in turn drive global climate change. This climate change affects agricultural development which is highly dependent on environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, soil type, water availability, etc. The article addresses the critical issue of climate change and its negative impact on agriculture. It highlights the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events and emphasizes the warming effects of agriculture due to its significant contribution to global emissions. The article aims to examine agriculture’s dual role in both contributing to and potentially reducing greenhouse gas emissions by exploring modern improved agricultural practices. It aims to shed light on the need for sustainable agricultural practices that can mitigate climate change, conserve natural resources and ensure food security.
