Integration of Sustainable Agriculture Approaches for Food Security under Climate Change II

Dear Colleagues,

Recent studies having established that climate change has a significantly adverse effect on food security. Moreover, the impact of climate change is becoming prominent in our daily lives. Similarly, climate change—being a significant constraint to a balanced environment and food security—and crop production influence each other, leading virtually all researchers to search for superior adaptation strategies for plant life under this problem. Nevertheless, crop production methods and technologies are available for combating the effects of climate change. Modern techniques and tools, such as the use of wild species, new agronomical practices, genomic tools, genetic engineering and the use of growth regulators, are some strategies used to combat the effects of climate change on crop production. With the advancement of these approaches, it has become easier to uncover methods for specific crops and the stresses hampering their production. Moreover, there are several approaches targeted for regions and, sometimes, there is a need to incorporate several strategies to achieve targets. In this Special Issue, prominent researchers are invited to communicate their original research and review articles exploring the “Integration of Sustainable Agriculture Approaches for Food Security under Climate Change”. The Special Issue critically follows the policies of Sustainability, concerning the submission, publication, review process, etc. We kindly ask that you review these before attempting a submission.
