- W4376876324 abstract "Climate change is significantly affecting the natural resources, food security and human health all over the world. It is projected that water availability will increase in some parts of the world, which will have its own effect on water use efficiency and water allocation. Crop production can increase if irrigated areas are expanded or irrigation is intensified, but these may increase the rate of environmental degradation. Since impact of climate change on soil water balance will lead to change in soil evaporation, and plant transpiration, consequently, in future the crop growth period may shorten impacting on water productivity. Crop yields affected by climate change are projected to be different in various areas, in some areas crop yield will increase, and for other areas it will decrease depending on the latitude of the area and irrigation application. Existing modeling results show that an increase in precipitation will increase crop yield, and what is more, crop yield is more sensitive to precipitation than temperature. If water availability is reduced in future, soils of high water holding capacity will reduce the impact of drought while maintaining crop yield. With the rise in temperature and precipitation fluctuations, water availability and crop production are likely to decrease in future. If the irrigated areas are expanded, the total crop production will increase; however, food and environmental quality may degrade. With nearly 690 million people facing hunger, agri-food systems emitting one third of global anthropogenic GHG emissions and a growing public demand for climate action, it is pressing to achieve food security while adapting to - and mitigating - climate change. Sustainable agricultural (SA) practices are the conservation and management of the natural resource base, and the orientation of technological change in a manner so as to ensure the attainment of continued satisfaction of human needs for present and future generations. In simple words, SA covers all agricultural production systems and practices which are economically viable, environmentally sound and socially acceptable, contributing to a better quality of life for agricultural producers, their families and general public. Furthermore, climate smart agriculture (CSA) is an approach for transforming and reorienting agricultural systems to support food security under the new realities of climate change. Three objectives are defined as follows; (1) sustainably increasing agricultural productivity to support equitable increase in income, food security and development; (2) adapting and building resilience to climate change from the farm to national levels; and (3) developing opportunities to reduce GHG emissions from agriculture compared with past trends. Therefore, by integrating SA and CSA become CSSA (Climate Smart Sustainable Agriculture) is strengthening the adoption of environmentally friendly agriculture (eco-farming system) in sustainable ways by implementing the innovative, appropriate and adequate (1) sustainable soil management, (2) water management, (3) crop management and (4) mitigation and adaptation practices to climate change. Soil organic carbon (SOC), greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and water footprint (WF) are the key indicators of environmental sustainability in agricultural systems. Increasing SOC, while reducing GHG emissions and WF are effective measures to achieve high crop productivity with minimum environmental impact indicating as a multi-pronged approach of CSSA. In conventional agricultural systems, intensive soil tillage and removal of crop residues can lead to increased negative environmental impact due to reduced SOC, GHG emission and high water consumption. Conservation agriculture (CA) based conservation tillage systems (CTS) with crop residue retention is often suggested as a resource conserving alternative to increase crop productivity without compromising soil health and environmental sustainability of different cropping systems. A fundamental challenge is to address the needs of broad and diverse groups of stakeholders by identifying an appropriate set of innovative soil-crop management systems for climate smart sustainable agriculture. This requires knowledge of the type and extent of expected changes in the climatic variables that affect crop production and the best adaptive management options for a given context. There is no template or set of procedures easily embraced to assure a climate smart sustainable agricultural system. Success depends upon location, scale, types of production and the objectives of the farmer. However, it is the acute set of issues and the opportunities that can be captured by getting it right that has inspired so many to embrace sustainable agriculture. To this end, millions of practitioners, scientists and other interested parties are actively experimenting, collaborating and applying innovative approaches. This Theme Section of Journal of Environmental Biology (JEB) covers the innovative soil-crop management systems for climate smart sustainable agriculture ensuring food, nutritional and environmental security under climate change scenario. The compilation of papers include various issues of global concern as well as different regions of the country. I would like to thank the esteemed contributors for sharing their valuable research for publication in this Theme Section and appreciate their efforts for patiently revising their papers to meet the suggestions of reviewers and responding to the requirement of the journal. I am highly thankful to all the reviewers of this Theme Section for critically evaluating the manuscripts and providing their valuable input for the technical improvement of each manuscript. I express my sincere gratitude to Late Dr. R.C. Dalela, the Editor-in-Chief of JEB for accepting the invitation for publication of these research papers in this Theme Section. I am also thankful to Dr. Sumati, the Editor of JEB for critical editing this Theme Section. The co-operation of the Editorial Office of JEB right from the beginning to the final publication is highly appreciated." @default.
