Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Climate change poses significant challenges to global food security and agricultural sustainability. This study investigates the impact of climate change on crop yields and soil health in a specific region, aiming to provide valuable insights for sustainable agricultural practices. The research employs a comprehensive approach, combining field observations, data analysis, and modeling techniques to assess the complex interactions between climate change factors and agricultural productivity. The study begins with an extensive review of the existing literature on climate change impacts on crop yields and soil health. This literature review highlights the importance of understanding how changing climatic conditions affect crop growth, yield potential, and soil nutrient availability. The research methodology involves collecting and analyzing data on temperature trends, precipitation patterns, soil quality parameters, and crop yields over a specific period. The findings reveal a clear correlation between climate change indicators and fluctuations in crop yields and soil health. Rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns have direct impacts on crop growth and yield potential. Soil nutrient availability and microbial activity are also influenced by climatic shifts, affecting overall soil health and fertility. The discussion section delves into the implications of these findings for agricultural practices and policy interventions. Strategies for adapting to climate change, such as crop diversification, water management practices, and soil conservation techniques, are explored as potential solutions to mitigate the negative impacts on crop yields and soil health. In conclusion, this study underscores the urgent need for proactive measures to address the challenges posed by climate change on agricultural productivity. By understanding the interactions between climatic factors and agricultural systems, stakeholders can develop targeted strategies to enhance resilience and sustainability in the face of a changing climate. This research contributes to the body of knowledge on climate change impacts on crop yields and soil health, providing valuable insights for future research and policy development in the field of agriculture and environmental science.
