CLIMATE SMART
HORTICULTURE LIKE ZERO/MINIMUM TILLAGE
Debashis Saikia ADO Chunari Circle Department of Agriculture, Goalpara (Assam) INTRODUCTION What is climate ? Climate is the average weather in a given area over a longer period of time. A description of a climate includes information on the average temperature in different seasons, rainfall, and sunshine. What is climate change? Climate change is any systematic change in the long-term statistics of climate variables such as temperature, precipitation, pressure, or wind sustained over several decades or longer. CLIMATE CHANGE • The consequences of such rapid change are - global warming, change of seasonal pattern, excessive rain, melting of ice cap, flood, rising sea level, drought, etc. leading to extremity of all kinds. • Climate change encompasses not only rising average temperatures but also extreme weather events, shifting wildlife populations and habitats, rising seas, and a range of other impacts.
HOW DOES CLIMATE CHANGE AFFECT THE PLANT?
• Climate change causes warmer summer temperatures and inconsistent precipitation patterns. These environmental alterations affect the flowering periods of plants globally. As the global temperature increases, plants will flower earlier in the season. • Decrease in potential yields is likely to be caused by shortening of the growing period, decrease in water availability and poor vernalization. “Digital tools and data science are accelerating agriculture innovation and transforming farming to advance how we convert natural resources into food, and ultimately have a positive impact on our planet.”
Jeremy Williams WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE? The periodic modification of Earth’s climate brought about due to the changes in the atmosphere as well as the interactions between the atmosphere and various other geological, chemical, biological and geographical factors within the Earth’s system is called Climate change.

TRANSBOUNDARY WATER MANAGEMENT Climate-Smart Horticulture is an CLIMATE-SMART approach to help the HORTICULTURE people who manage horticultural systems respond effectively to climate change. OBJECTIVES
Sustainably increasing Adapting to productivity climate change and incomes
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions Why Climate - Smart Horticulture?
Higher temperatures, changes in precipitation
patterns, rising sea levels and more frequent extreme weather events pose risks for Horticulture, food and water supplies.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1 & 2
envision a world with zero hunger. Food supply needs to grow by 60 per cent from 2006 levels by 2030 in order to satisfy the demand for food.
In order to meet the projected demand for food, we would
require higher yields, given that it may not be possible to raise acreage substantially.
Climate-smart horticulture can help farmers adapt to and
mitigate climate change.
When farmers plant trees to prevent land degradation, they
also contribute to climate change mitigation by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. INNOVATIONS REGARDING SMART HORTCULTURE
Yield monitoring Precision in fruits and irrigation nuts Internet of Robotics Things wireless connectivity
Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) Yield maps, the visual and numerical product of yield monitors, encourage RS creative investigation O O NIT and can provide D M EL reliable answers to YI carefully performed on-farm experiments. PRECISION IRRIGATION SYSTEM 1. Establish solid expectations for success 2. Reduce stress in irrigation 3. Increase profitability ROBOTICS
Robots can be used for an
incredible number of tasks to ease the burden on the farmers. Their primary role is to tackle labor-intensive, repetitive, and physically demanding tasks. INTERNET OF THINGS WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY 1.Sensor-based systems for monitoring crops, soil, fields, livestock, storage facilities, or basically any important factor that influences the production.
2.Connected horticulture spaces such
as smart greenhouses or hydroponics.
3.Data analytics, visualization and
management systems.
4.Predictive modeling and planning.
UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEM • Evaluate small unmanned aerial systems for aerial crop surveying;
• Investigate the ability of Structure from
Motion (SfM) techniques to derive accurate 3D point clouds of the plant canopy across different genotypes in two species;
•Develop a remote sensing processing workflow to
derive relevant plant height metrics and relate these to measured plant canopy height and structural parameters;
•Investigate the accuracy of SfM plant height
estimates when compared to ground and terrestrial LiDAR scanning measurements. CONCLUSION
Identifying and promoting climate-smart practices
that strengthen rural communities, improve smallholder livelihoods and employment, and avoid negative social and cultural impacts, such as loss of land tenure and forced migration. In many developing countries, the design and implementation of agricultural support policies could be radically improved. The objectives of climate-smart horticulture goals need to be integrated into this broad policy context. You Tube •During lockdown period, videos of Web lecture, Competitive videos, High density planting and Fruit production are of great help to students and talk show and demonstration to fruit growers and field functionaries.
• The total views of my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/parshant
