商品描述
The principal focus of this book will be how to make agriculture/food production climate resilient in the ecologically sensitive zones. The Western Ghats, in the state of Kerala, India, in which Wayanad district falls, has 75% of its area classified as ecologically sensitive zones and there are three types of such zones: (1)Highly ecologically sensitive zones (2) Middle sensitivity zones and (3) Low sensitivity zones. Most of the construction has taken place in the first two categories, and, indiscriminate and intense quarrying has also taken place in these two zones. As aerosol load increases in the atmosphere, dust particles from rock quarries increases which leads to higher ambient temperature, leading to ocean warming in the Arabian ocean, finally, resulting in excessive cloud formation and consequent torrential rainfall. This has led to huge landslides, where more than 500 human lives were lost in addition to huge property loss making it a global disaster of immense proportions. The book highlights the crucial question how agriculture in these sensitive areas can be made climate resilient.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書的主要焦點將是如何在生態敏感區域使農業/食品生產具備氣候韌性。印度喀拉拉邦的西高止山脈，其中包括瓦揚德區，75%的面積被劃分為生態敏感區，這些區域可分為三種類型：(1) 高度生態敏感區 (2) 中度敏感區和 (3) 低度敏感區。大部分建設發生在前兩類區域，並且在這兩個區域內也發生了不加區別和強烈的採石活動。隨著大氣中的氣溶膠負荷增加，來自採石場的塵埃顆粒也隨之增加，這導致環境溫度上升，進而引起阿拉伯海的海洋變暖，最終導致過量雲層形成和隨之而來的暴雨。這造成了巨大的山崩，超過500條人命喪失，並造成巨大的財產損失，使其成為一場全球性災難。本書強調了如何使這些敏感區域的農業具備氣候韌性的關鍵問題。

He has held many other distinguished research and administrative positions, globally, and is best known for developing "The Nutrient BUffer Power Concept", a revolutionary soil management technique that he has developed over three decades of research in Europe, Africa and Asia, which has challenged the fallacies of the highly soil extractive farming, euphemistically known as the green revolution, and, India's great President, late Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, launched his book titled "Issues in National and International Agriculture" in Raj Bhavan (Office of the Governor), State of Tamil Nadu, Chennai, India.
