Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The extensive deterioration of agricultural land as a consequence of contemporary industrial farming methods is well documented. Traditional crop production methods combined with climate-smart adoption strategies have a direct impact on agricultural production sustainability for an expanding population in a rapidly changing environment. It is possible to minimise the negative impacts of climate change while maintaining a sustainable crop output by using a variety of farm management techniques. Furthermore, climatic fluctuation and change are natural phenomena that have an impact on crop production and sustainability, and there are a variety of strategies for minimising the negative effects of climate change on agriculture. The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of the research on the variables that influence sustainable crop production. To generate compclimate change; plant stress; crop wild relatives; crop modelling; agronomy; genomics; priming; rationing; salinity; transgenics; stability analysis; growth regulatorsetent guidelines and suggestions for policymakers, more research using standardised surveys and analytic techniques is required. Researchers from across the world are encouraged to share their original research and review papers in this Special Issue, which is titled “Study on Influencing Factors of Sustainable Crop Production." In terms of submission, publishing, and the review process, this Special Issue closely follows the Sustainability rules; please study these policies prior to submitting an article to this Special Issue.
