Environmental characterization for sustainable crop production in Chhattisgarh Agroclimatic zones: A review
Author(s): Hemant Kumar Bhuarya and R Singh
Abstract: A method for assessing and implementing sustainable crop production is needed to give practical relevance to the frequently used term "sustainable agriculture†Agro-climatic zones can be defined as a land unit having a greater degree of commonality or homogeneity with respect to various conditions and resources such as climatic parameters important for agriculture and cropping pattern etc. Food and agriculture Organization (FAO) of United Nations and International Institute of Applied System Analysis (IIASA) have developed a methodology for characterization of Agroclimati condition Agro-ecological zones. This method provides a wide range of different activities. Which are often related yet quite different in scope and objectives like characterization relevant to agriculture production. identifying crop specific limitations. Quantification of land productivity and population supporting capacity of land and multi criteria optimization. Agro-ecological zoning is one of the most important bases for agricultural developmental planning because the survival and failure of particular land use of farming system in a given region heavily realizes on careful assessment of agro-climatic resources.
