Abstract
Impacts of climate change highly affect agriculture in general and crop production in particular. Research results in the field of climate change have emphasized, that there are various impacts that may influence production patterns, the deterioration of quantitative and qualitative values of crop yields produced for alimentary purposes, and determine postharvest feature of agricultural products inducing hazard in the field of food security, safety, transport, storage and distribution. The negative effects of climate change can be limited by changes in crops and crop varieties, improved water-management, adapted plant nutrition, protection and tillage practices. Carbon sequestration through crop production, land use and soil management practices may utilise and so reduce the annual increase in atmospheric CO2.
