An Impact Assessment of Ozone Phtotoxicity on Indian Crops

Ozone phytotoxicity on Indian crops

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In India, agriculture is the main driver of economic growth. Apart from being critically important for food security, agriculture production is facing threat from emerging problem of air pollution. Tropospheric ozone is one of the most damaging phytotoxic air pollutants known to cause serious damage to agriculture crops, trees and natural ecosystems. In future tropospheric ozone may become an important factor on account of growing emission of ozone forming precursors due to rapid industrialization and economic development and shrinking area of agricultural land. Therefore, protection of agriculture crops from ozone phtotoxicity deserves attention. Present study generated baseline data on responses of different Indian crops to ozone exposure. This is also an effort about identifying new opportunities as preparing to minimize negative impacts of global climate change.

Autorenporträt

In India wordt de landbouwproductie bedreigd door luchtverontreiniging. Troposferisch ozon is de meest schadelijke fytotoxische luchtverontreinigende stof die schade toebrengt aan gewassen. Daarom verdient de bescherming van gewassen tegen ozon de nodige aandacht. Om deze redenen is mijn M.Phil werk "Een beoordeling van de fytotoxiciteit van ozon op sommige gewasplanten van India".
