Discuss the effects of climate change on agriculture.
Climate change and agriculture are interrelated processes, both of which take place on a global scale. change affects agriculture in a number of ways, including through changes in average temperatures, rainfall, and climate extremes (e.g., heat waves); changes in pests and diseases; changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide and ground-level ozone concentrations; changes in the nutritional quality of some foods; and changes in sea level.
Climate change is already affecting agriculture, with effects unevenly distributed across the world.] Future climate change will likely negatively affect crop production in latitude countries, while effects in northern latitudes may be positive or negative. Climate change will probably increase the risk offood insecurity for some vulnerable groups, such as the poor.
Agriculture contributes to climate change by (1) anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), and (2) by the conversion of non-agricultural land (e.g., forests) into agricultural land Agriculture, forestry and land-use change contributed around 20 to 25% to global annual emissions in 2010.
There are range of policies that can reduce the risk of negative climate change impacts on agriculture, and to reduce GHG emissions from the agriculture sector.
