Title : Study on the cause and effect of climate change on crop selection
Abstract:
Climate change has been a major concern globally, influencing various environmental factors, including agriculture. This study explores the effect of temperature variability and extremes on crop selection, particularly in Maharashtra, India. The research identifies key temperature-related parameters affecting crops, including deviation from long-period averages, daily-scale variability, and diurnal temperature range. Furthermore, models are developed to predict crop feasibility, extreme weather events, and climate anomalies such as El Nino. The study provides valuable insights into sustainable agricultural planning and risk management.
