This comprehensive review delves into the intricate change
of climate, assessing its profound impact on global food security and crop
productivity. Climate change and its variability are serious concerns for
humankind, as the consequences may include the rapid melting of glaciers,
changes in precipitation patterns, more frequent extreme weather events,
shifting seasons, the spread of pests and diseases, and other socio-economic
impacts. Examining the effects of climate change on agriculture and addressing
important issues, the study puts particular emphasis on the difficulties faced
by sensitive areas like South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. While navigating the
challenges of mitigating crop growth pattern changes caused by climate change,
the review emphasizes the urgency of adaptive measures for sustainable global
agriculture. In addition, it examines how biodiversity may be affected by
climate change while taking into account the interdependence of natural
systems. Highlighting the imperative for innovation, the review underscores the
pressing need for transformative farming methods to tackle the multifaceted
challenges posed by climate change. The emphasis is on ensuring the resilience
of global agriculture in the face of climatic shifts. In conclusion, the review
provides a compelling call to action, advocating for the prompt implementation
of innovative farming practices to fortify the global agricultural sector
against the evolving challenges brought about by climate change, fostering
sustainability and adaptability. Overall, the review underscores the intricate
relationship between climate change, food security, and biodiversity,
emphasizing the critical importance of proactive measures to mitigate the
adverse effects and safeguard planetary health.
