Abstract

Climate change predictions may benefit from an awareness of how current changes have impacted food availability. Many agricultural activities throughout the globe have seen fast climate change over the last few decades, and greenhouse gas (GHG) levels in the atmosphere have also surged. Because of the near inevitability that climate and CO2 trends will continue in the future, several concerns about food security remain unanswered, one of which is whether or not global agriculture’s overall productivity will be influenced. It was also observed that climate change might have a significant impact on global food security in the next decades. Global anthropogenic trends, such as expanding populations, the diversion of grains to biofuels, increased protein consumption, and weather extremes, are imposing increasing pressure on agricultural productivity. In order to lower global CO2 levels and store atmospheric CO2, sustainable farming systems and management practises should be adopted. For resource-strapped farmers vis-à-vis policymakers, in this chapter, we documented a comprehensive list of possible implications of climate change on key worldwide field crop yield, mitigation techniques, and long-term prospects.
