Assessing the Impact of Climate Change on Crop Diseases and Developing Strategies for Disease Management. MSC

Abstract:
This research project aims to assess the impact of climate change on crop diseases and develop strategies for disease management. Climate change has the potential to alter the dynamics of crop diseases, including their occurrence, severity, and distribution. Understanding these changes and developing effective management strategies is crucial for ensuring food security and sustainable agriculture. The study will involve data analysis, field surveys, and laboratory experiments to evaluate the relationship between climate change and crop diseases. The findings of this research will contribute to the development of climate-resilient disease management practices for crop production.
