“…The World Vegetable Center has played a major role in the development of Chinese cabbage and tomato lines that can withstand heat, as well as the subsequent global distribution of tropical varieties that have been specially suited. Expanding the genetic foundation of heat-tolerant cultivars by crossing them with disease-resistant temperate or winter types is essential to producing high yields [46]. To match the demands of a changing climate, more heat-tolerant cultivars are needed and these cultivars must be able to equal conventional, non-heat-tolerant types yields in non-stressful environments.…”

This review explores the complex relationship between sustainable vegetable production and climate change, aiming to identify strategies for harnessing climatic shifts to promote resilience and productivity in the agricultural sector. One of the abundant sources of vitamins and minerals in vegetables contributes significantly to food and nutritional security. Vegetables are extremely vulnerable to erratic climate shifts and highly perishable. This study emphasizes the need for adaptable approaches to address issues caused by altered temperature patterns, erratic precipitation and increased extreme weather occurrences. The review highlights the integration of climate-resilient vegetable crop varieties into implementing innovative technologies like precision farming and greenhouse farming and emphasises the need for a holistic approaches. The importance of institutional support, community involvement and policy frameworks is explored to address this complex climate change paradox. By combining existing knowledge, this review provides insights into the numerous strategies required for sustainable vegetable production regarding climate change (Use of climate resilient varieties, Adoption of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices, Crop diversification). Consequently, this review article aims to examine the climate change effects on growing vegetables in a sustainable manner as well as its management strategies.
