The significance of the climate change and their impacts on fruit crops, their problems, and their solutions determine the need for a book in agriculture. So, firstly we are going to talk about the importance of climate change and the shift of the climate due to various reasons. Similarly, king of fruits (mango) is also facing various issues due to climate change and the most important problems which are causing serious constraints to mango production are Mango sudden decline and mango malformation. These problems have emerged in orchards since the issue of climate change is increasing day by day and currently there is no mango orchard free from these diseases and leading to very low production of the crop with respect to previous years. Similarly climate change has also raised the issue of unseen pathogens in the mango orchards posing serious challenges to mango production due to new diseases and stresses. The main drivers behind the writing of this book is that this book will disseminate a plethora of knowledge on how to deal smartly with the mango orchards in changing climate to obtain good yield and to maintain good health status.
This book is a groundbreaking compendium that bridges cutting-edge science, innovative technologies, and actionable strategies to safeguard mango cultivation in a warming world. The mango, revered globally as the “King of Fruits,” faces an existential threat from climate change. Rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and intensifying pest pressures jeopardize the livelihoods of millions of farmers and the future of this iconic crop.
Among other topics the chapters discuss microbiome engineering, nanotechnology, climate-smart irrigation, and policy frameworks. This book offers region-specific insights alongside universal strategies. Case studies on Chaunsa Summer Bahisht and polyembryonic rootstocks reveal practical pathways to climate adaptation.
This book is an indispensable resource for researchers, horticulturists, policymakers, agronomists, plant pathologists, entomologists, farmer’s, agriculturists and industry professionals seeking sustainable strategies to safeguard mango production under changing climatic scenarios. This reference work will serve as a cornerstone for future research and policy development in tropical fruit cultivation.
