Infos

Agriculture is a major user of available land resources and is both a source and sink of GHGs. Patterns of land use may transform in the coming decades to meet food needs, but may also adjust in response to an effort to achieve reduction in GHGs emission. However, the international nature of agriculture implies that even local and regional agricultural developments and polices are no panacea for solving global climate change related problems. This book offers a state of the art overview of GHGs emissions in different sectors, its budgeting, mitigation and adaption strategies, polices and future needs. The book is primarily focused on GHGs inventories in different sectors/systems of agriculture, advanced methodologies for GHGs monitoring, and quantification, basic mechanisms of GHGs production and emissions from agriculture, mitigation cum adaptation strategies in details and recent issues of GHGs management in agriculture. We hope this book will provide a valuable resource material for students, researchers, professionals and policy makers to understand the various facets of the GHGs emissions, its budgeting, mitigation and management in agriculture.
