“…Even a small increase in SOC can have positive effects on a range of soil physical properties and thus potentially improve the resilience of soil to stress and contribute to climate change adaptation (Chakraborty et al 2014;Powlson et al 2016). Sapkota et al (2017) found that zero tillage and retention of crop residues increased the soil organic carbon content by 4.66 tons per hectare over 7 years.…”

Agriculture in South Asia is vulnerable to climate change. Therefore, adaptation measures are required to sustain agricultural productivity, to reduce vulnerability, and to enhance the resilience of the agricultural system to climate change. There are many adaptation practices in the production systems that have been proposed and tested for minimizing the effects of climate change. Some socioeconomic and political setup contributes to adaptation, while others may inhibit it. This paper presents a systematic review of the impacts of climate change on crop production and also the major options in the agricultural sector that are available for adaptation to climate change. One of the key conclusions is that agricultural practices that help climate change adaptation in agriculture are available, while the institutional setup to implement and disseminate those technical solutions is yet to be strengthened. Thus, it is important to examine how to bring the required institutional change, generate fund to invest on these changes, and design dynamic policies for long-term climate change adaptation in agriculture rather than a mere focus on agricultural technology. This is one of the areas where South Asian climate policies require reconsidering to avoid possible maladaptation in the long run.

Highlights How wheat responds to physical and nutritional stresses was investigated. An evident interaction between mechanical impedance and phosphorus supply were observed. Mechanical impedance restricted wheat growth under sufficient phosphorus supply Wheat responses to mechanical impedance were reduced under low phosphorus supply Tall and dwarf wheat genotypes performed similarly under impedance and P stresses.

“…(ρb) at the same depth (Table 2). This can be explained by Y, unlike ρb, being highly affected by the particle-particle bonds participating in the particular mode of failure as well as the presence of micro-cracks serving as planes of weakness to initiate tensile failure (Chakraborty et al, 2014).…”
