Chapter 1. Global and regional perspective of climate smart agriculture -- Chapter 2. Climate Smart Horticulture -- Chapter 3. Climate resilient forage production systems in rainfed regions of India -- Chapter 4. Climate Smart Agroforestry -- Chapter 5. Climate Smart Livestock production -- Chapter 6. Climate Smart Agriculture and Gender Policy -- Chapter 7. Precision farming: a step towards sustainable, climate smart agriculture -- Chapter 8. Climate Smart Agriculture in Mauritius: Moving towards a landscape approach -- Chapter 9. Scope and Strategic intervention for Climate Smart Agriculture in North Eastern India -- Chapter 10. Green Agriculture: Transforming Agriculture in India -- Chapter 11. Defining a policy nexus for sustainable agriculture and food security in the Caribbean Region -- Chapter 12. Current policies and practices behind Scaling up Climate Smart Agriculture in India -- Chapter 13. Global climate change impacts: Perspectives from Sri Lanka -- Chapter 14. Integration of geospatial technology and simulation modelling for climate change studies -- Chapter 15. Integrated Farming Systems option to cope with climate change for sustainable food production in Indian Himalayan Region (IHR).

This book provides essential insights into methods and practices of ‘Climate-smart Agriculture,’ which is driven by the principles of climate resilience and smart resource use in agricultural production. Climate-smart agriculture is a key policy instrument for achieving poverty eradication and a hunger-free world, as well as mitigating the effects of climate change. This book discusses in detail climate-smart agricultural technologies and practices that can reduce the vulnerability of agricultural systems, improve the livelihoods of farmers and other stakeholders, and reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from crop production and livestock husbandry. The agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector produces roughly 10–12 gigatons of CO2-equivalent per year; therefore, sustainable practices for agriculture and related land use hold immense potential to mitigate climate change. The potential impacts of climate variability and climate change on agriculture are extensively documented and articulated, especially with regard to global and national environmental agendas that call for innovation, transformation and climate-resilient advances in agriculture. As the book demonstrates, climate-smart agriculture offers an excellent tool for boosting agricultural output to feed the growing global population; for reducing greenhouse gases emissions from agriculture and other land use; and for protecting agricultural production systems from the impending dangers of climate change.
