Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. Natural change in climate is slow and takes millions of years; and it is known to have made our planet hospitable to live. The climate change is not limited to one country or a continent. It is occurring across the globe as evident from droughts in Texas and flooding along the Missouri River in the United States and along the Red River in Canada. Climate change drives many stressors and interacts with many non-climatic stressors which make it difficult to forecast outcomes in any general way other than existing threats to agriculture. Agroforestry increases a high level of diversity within agricultural lands which supports numerous ecological and production services that bring resilience to the impact of climate change mitigation and adaptation. Climate change risk management is difficult in annual cropping systems due to increasing uncertainty of inter-annual variability in rainfall and temperature. Mixing of woody trees with crops, forage and livestock operations provides greater resilience to the inter-annual variability through crop diversification and increased resource use efficiency. Deep rooted trees allow better access to nutrients and water during droughts and when appropriately integrated into annual cropping systems and extract from different resource pools that would otherwise be lost from systems. Agroforestry increases soil porosity, reduces runoff and increases soil cover, which improve water infiltration and reduces moisture stress in low rainfall years. During periods of excessive soil moisture, tree based systems keep soils aerated by pumping out excess water and offer an economic return. The book contains 36 chapters mainly on agroforestry practices found in India and its role in climate change mitigation and adaptation.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Climate change is a natural process that occurs over millions of years, making our planet habitable for life. This phenomenon is not confined to a particular country or continent, as evidenced by droughts in Texas and flooding along the Missouri River in the United States, as well as along the Red River in Canada. Climate change presents multiple challenges and interacts with various non-climatic stressors, making it difficult to predict the consequences in a general sense, except for the threats to agriculture. Agroforestry can help mitigate these challenges by increasing biodiversity within agricultural lands, which supports various ecological and production services that enhance resilience to climate change.Managing the risks associated with climate change in annual cropping systems is complicated due to the increasing uncertainty of inter-annual variability in rainfall and temperature. Agroforestry, which involves mixing woody trees with crops, forage, and livestock operations, provides greater resilience to these fluctuations through crop diversification and improved resource use efficiency. Deep-rooted trees allow better access to nutrients and water during droughts and can enhance resource utilization when integrated appropriately into annual cropping systems. Agroforestry also increases soil porosity, reduces runoff, and increases soil cover, which improve water infiltration and reduce moisture stress during periods of low rainfall. In times of excessive soil moisture, tree-based systems keep soils aerated by pumping out excess water, offering an economic return.The book comprises 36 chapters, primarily focusing on agroforestry practices in India and their role in climate change mitigation and adaptation. 660 pp. Englisch.…
