• Sommario/riassunto: This book aims to provide a holistic and interdisciplinary understanding of the social, ecological, technological, and psychological dimensions of climate-resilient agriculture. The major focus of this volume is to highlight people-centered adaptation strategies, the role of digital tools and local innovations, and the mental and community well-being aspects in response to climate change impacts on agriculture. In the context of intensifying climate variability, sustainable agriculture must evolve beyond biophysical interventions to include the human and institutional factors that determine resilience. This volume explores themes such as climate-resilient water and soil management, AI-enabled prediction of crop diseases, biochar and microbial innovations, and floriculture under stress. It features specialized content on digital agriculture, 3D farming, and socio-behavioral responses to climate change, including an in-depth study on climate anxiety among youth. Other chapters address sustainable intensification, gender-sensitive approaches, smallholder farmer viability, desert agriculture, and the integration of Indigenous knowledge and extension systems. These themes are supported by empirical case studies, regional evaluations, and conceptual frameworks aimed at driving transformative adaptation. This book is of interest to climate scientists, agricultural researchers, social scientists, extension workers, environmental psychologists, development practitioners, and policy makers working at the intersection of agriculture and climate change. It will also serve as a reference for undergraduate and postgraduate students in disciplines such as agriculture, environmental science, rural sociology, ecology, psychology, and sustainable development.
