Agriculture in the Age of Climate Change: Insights from Contemporary Research offers a meticulously curated compilation of scientific journal articles exploring the multifaceted relationship between agriculture and climate change. This comprehensive collection delves into the complexities of agricultural subsidies, greenhouse gas emissions, and the Water-Energy-Food Nexus in Central and Eastern Europe, providing innovative models for climate adaptation. It highlights early-stage efforts in British Columbia to integrate agricultural emissions reduction into local government policies and examines the development of climate-smart agricultural technologies in West Africa. Through participatory action research, these grassroots initiatives blend traditional knowledge with modern science, fostering local resilience against climate variability. The book also discusses the role of science-policy engagement in translating research into actionable policies, emphasizing the need for robust adaptation strategies. Additionally, it investigates the challenges faced by rural communities in Nigeria due to deforestation and climate change, offering insights into adaptive farming strategies. With a focus on gender mainstreaming in East African climate policies and the economic impact of climate change on Ethiopian agriculture, this collection serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, scientists, and practitioners aiming to harmonize agricultural practices with climate realities. The contributions within this book underscore the urgent necessity for innovative policy measures and community empowerment to navigate the interface between climate variability and agricultural productivity.
