CLIMATE CHANGES AND ITS IMPACT ON AGRICULTURE OF NORTHERN TELANGANA ZONE.

Climate change scenarios include higher temperatures, changes in precipitation, and higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations which may affect on yield (both quality and quantity), growth rates, photosynthesis and transpiration rates, moisture availability, through changes of water use (irrigation) and agricultural inputs such as herbicides, insecticides and fertilizers etc. Environmental effects such as frequency and intensity of soil drainage (leading to nitrogen leaching), soil erosion, land availability, reduction of crop diversity may also affect agricultural productivity.and its effect on Biodiversity.
