Climate change and global crop productivity
The book is divided into 4 sections: the problem: changing biosphere (climatic change and variability, and agricultural contributions to greenhouse gas emissions), crop ecosystem responses to climatic change (rice, maize and sorghum, soyabean, cotton, root and tuberous crops, vegetable crops, tree crops, productive grasslands, rangelands, crassulacean acid metabolism crops, crop-weed interactions, pests and population dynamics, soil organic matter dynamics, and interactive effects of ozone, ultraviolet-B radiation, sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide), mitigation strategies (crop breeding strategies for the 21st century, and role of biotechnology in crop productivity in a changing environment) and economic and social impacts (global, regional and local food production and trade in a changing environment).
