EXPLORING CLIMATE RESILIENT CROP VARIETIES

Abstract

Climate change is a growing threat to global food security, particularly in regions prone to extreme weather events and changing environmental conditions. This article explores the development and adoption of climate-resilient crop varieties, focusing on their potential to mitigate the impacts of climate change on agriculture. Through an analysis of genetic modification, traditional breeding techniques, and indigenous knowledge systems, the study highlights the importance of resilient crops in ensuring food security and sustainability. Key challenges, such as the need for adequate research funding, farmer adoption, and the role of policy in promoting climate-resilient varieties, are also discussed.
