Climate change impact on rice growth and agronomic practices: A comprehensive review

Climate change poses significant challenges to global rice production, impacting growth, yield, and agronomic practices. This review synthesizes existing research on the physiological impacts of climate change on rice, including temperature stress, water scarcity, and pest dynamics. The review also examines regional variations in these effects and evaluates agronomic practices that help mitigate these challenges. By analyzing secondary data, this paper provides an overview of climate-related risks faced by rice farming and the strategies that can contribute to global food security. The findings underscore the urgent need for adaptive measures to maintain rice productivity amidst changing climatic conditions.
