Biosensors in Climate-Smart Organic Agriculture

AgricultureAgriculture not only contributes to greenhouse gas emissions but is also a victim of climate changeClimate change. Reducing emissions from agriculturalAgricultural farm fieldsField—primarily methane and nitrous oxide—has a prominent influence on climate changeClimate change adaptationAdaptation and mitigationMitigation. This chapter presents a comprehensive review and synthesis of recent research in the area of biosensorsBiosensor and their potential applicationsApplications in climate-smart organic agricultureAgriculture in order to ensure food availability for the growing population which largely depends on the collaborative effort resulting in technologyTechnology developmentDevelopment to address top challenges associated with agricultureAgriculture andEnvironmental sensors environmental sustainabilityEnvironmental sustainability. Continuous monitoringMonitoring and early detectionEarly detection of contaminants and diseaseDisease outbreaks with the help of biosensorsBiosensor can certainly improve cropClimate-smart crops yields. These sensorsSensors can assist farmers in reducing levels of emissions; improving resource utilization efficiencyResource utilization efficiency and increasing farm productivityProductivity with the reduced environmentalEnvironmental and economic cost of productionCost of production. The main task of the deployed biosensorsBiosensor is the detectionDetection and timely removal of biochemical and other categories of contaminants from the farm fieldsField to maintain the quality and safety of the food items while disposing of pestsPest, pathogensPathogen, and weedsWeeds. Consequently, a growing demand for bio-sensing technologiesSensing technology exists in the agricultureAgriculture and food industries. This article will help researchers in proffering valuable insights and inferences for their research work as a contribution to the comprehension of associated challenges, potential solutions, and advancements for the developmentDevelopment of cost-effective solutions for farmers based on bio-sensing technologiesSensing technology.
