Title: XXII National Symposium
Climate Smart Agronomy for Resilient Production Systems and Livelihood Security
Date: November 22-24, 2023
The 22 Biennial National Symposium on “Climate Smart Agronomy for Resilient Production Systems and Livelihood Security” is being organized during 22–24 November, 2023 at ICAR-Central Coastal Agricultural Research Institute, Goa, by The Indian Society of Agronomy (ISA). The aim of the conference is to gather professionals working in the field of Agronomy, Soil Science, Soil & Water Conservation Engineering, Forestry, Horticulture and allied agricultural sciences, UG/PG Students, Research Scholars, Faculties and Scientists from R&D industries academic institutions and NGOs to participate and present their work on sustaining productivity in the era of climate change while managing the scarce natural resources. The deliberations will cover the successful initiatives made on climate resilient production systems, latest technological interventions adopted in mitigating the climate change, adaptation practices needed to minimize the impact of various climatic stresses to enhance productivity and to stabilize farm income. Opportunities emanating on various aspects like carbon management, abiotic and biotic stress management, redesigning agricultural research, extension and education, diversified land use promotion with integrated farming systems for mitigation of climate change impacts would be discussed extensively. The proceeding of the national symposium would be brought out and the recommendations contribute to developing climate smart agronomic practices, resilient production systems which can contribute to enhanced farm income and sustainable livelihoods.
The recommendations of the symposium will guide to the researchers and policy planners in designing of climate resilient cleaner production policy for sustainable food production and environmental sustainability.
The papers in the symposium are invited on innovative ideas and approaches under 9 sub-themes:
1. Organic farming and Natural Farming
2. Precision input management
3. System approaches for agro-ecosystem sustainability and integrated farming systems
4. Machine learning and artificial intelligence in smart agronomic management
5. Carbon management in agricultural production systems 6. Millets (Shree Anna) for human and environmental health
7. Agro-ecological approaches for biotic and abiotic stress management
8. Post-harvest management to achieve the farm-to-fork concept
9. Redesigning agronomy for knowledge and skill development
VENUE
The symposium is scheduled to be held during 22–24 November 2023 at ICAR-Central Coastal Agricultural Research Institute, Ela, Goa.
