Rethinking agriculture as a climate change solution for food and soil security: A soil-centric solution for sustainable agriculture

Al-Kaisi, Mahdi

This book covers the topic of current agriculture in the era of climate change challenges and how it can be transformed to a new system that is soil-centric to ensure food and soil security, yet be an effective potential solution for climate change.  The main purpose of writing this book is to address the current agriculture system that is economically, socially, and environmentally unsustainable given its contribution to the current climate change crises through the extensive use of fossil fuel, chemicals, and synthetic fertilizers, which has led to a 15% contribution of total GHG emissions globally. This book highlights the connection between climate challenges, food security, soil security, and ecosystem services in one concise, one place resource reference.  This book also provides readers a comprehensive review of published research and science in one place, highlighting the connection between major challenges driven by climate change, such as, food security, soil health, climate change and the role of regenerative and climate-smart agriculture technology systems in providing solutions.
