Textbook of Agrometeorology & Climate Change

Agriculture is one of the basic fields of the human activity, which is especially sensitive to weather, and climate. The study of these two aspects in relation to agriculture is referred as Agricultural Meteorology and it is multidisciplinary science. When agricultural meteorology properly applied, we can achieve the sustainability of agricultural production system through efficient management of agro-climatic resources and crop microclimatic modification. Each and every plant’s developmental phase is decided by meteorological parameters and their influence on crop growth and yield which is essential to having the knowledge for agricultural students. This book introduce agrometeorology (definitions, aims, scope and importance) which helps to understand roles of agrometeorology in agriculture and its relation to other areas of agriculture and to acquaint with recent developments in agrometeorology with historical development of climate change.
