Economic Consequences of Climate Change on Agricultural Productivity

Climate change threatens not just other resources but also the supply of water, one of the world's most valuable commodities. Human health and traditional practices are being negatively affected by the changes taking place in the biosphere, biodiversity, and natural resources. Most climate scientists predict that India will see warmer-than-average temperatures throughout the 21st century. Temperatures in India will vary more widely from season to season, with warmer winters and cooler summers being the most noticeable differences. Heat waves in India have been becoming longer and longer in recent years due to warmer nights and higher daytime temperatures, and this trend are expected to persist. It is projected that if CO2 concentrations were to double, the average temperature would rise by 2.33. to 4.78 degrees Celsius. This hot wave will hit India's agriculture sector the hardest due to the increasing unpredictability of the summer monsoon rains. The average global temperature and CO2 levels are predicted to rise significantly in the future, according to climate models. Nonetheless, when it comes to foretelling future changes to the local weather, these models fall short. On the off chance that plant diseases can be reined in, agricultural methods that take advantage of local plant species, cropping patterns, soil conditions, and climatic factors like rainfall, temperature, sunshine, and wind might exponentially increase food production.

Abstract

Climate change threatens not just other resources but also the supply of water, one of the world's most valuable commodities. Human health and traditional practices are being negatively affected by the changes taking place in the biosphere, biodiversity, and natural resources. Most climate scientists predict that India will see warmer-than-average temperatures throughout the 21st century. Temperatures in India will vary more widely from season to season, with warmer winters and cooler summers being the most noticeable differences. Heat waves in India have been becoming longer and longer in recent years due to warmer nights and higher daytime temperatures, and this trend are expected to persist. It is projected that if CO2 concentrations were to double, the average temperature would rise by 2.33. to 4.78 degrees Celsius. This hot wave will hit India's agriculture sector the hardest due to the increasing unpredictability of the summer monsoon rains. The average global temperature and CO2 levels are predicted to rise significantly in the future, according to climate models. Nonetheless, when it comes to foretelling future changes to the local weather, these models fall short. On the off chance that plant diseases can be reined in, agricultural methods that take advantage of local plant species, cropping patterns, soil conditions, and climatic factors like rainfall, temperature, sunshine, and wind might exponentially increase food production.
