📘 Book Description:

This comprehensive book delves into Crop Growth Simulation Modelling and its connection to Climate Change, providing a detailed exploration of crop modelling techniques in the context of agricultural production. The authors have collaborated to cover various crucial topics, such as:

• Crop Growth Simulation Models for agricultural crop production

• Applications of crop growth simulation models in assessing climate change

• Biophysical impacts and adaptation priorities for crops in a changing climate

• Climate change projections and their implications for India’s agricultural landscape

• The effects of rising atmospheric CO₂ on plant and soil processes

• Soil erosion modelling in the context of climate change and organic carbon dynamics

• Simulation of crop yield, soil processes, greenhouse gas emissions, and their effects on climate change using models like APSIM, InfoCrop, and CropSyst

• The role of conservation agriculture in coping with climate change impacts

• Using remote sensing data in crop process models for more accurate assessments

• Detailed impact assessments of climate change on various crops, including rainfed rice and wheat, and strategies for mitigation
