Produktbeschreibung

The impact of climate change on oil seed crop is getting more and more pronounced with each passing day, resulting in reduced crop yield over Pakistan. Pakistan is an agricultural country of which flood, drought, changing rainfall pattern is a main issue arising due to climate change.Pollinators have already been stressed by climate change impacts. Extreme weather events can cause further severe impacts on these pollinators by causing high overwintering losses. Less roving pollinators, such as small beetles and ground nesting bees, may be the most severely struck by outcomes such as flooding and gusts. Extreme conditions not only can disrupt individual insect livelihood, but can also negatively impact entire colonies or local populations. It is recommended to take offensive measures to consider these issues, otherwise the total cultivated area may decrease and market of oil seed crop will be deteriorated. Moreover, in that respect there is a desperate need to aggressively exploreopportunities of capacity building and institutional strengthening to address the climate change issues in Pakistan.
