Description
Agricultural systems are significant contributors to greenhouse gas production and environmental pollution. An integrated approach is required for mitigation and creating climate-smart and environment-friendly production systems.
The theme of ISCRAES 2022 was ‘Implementing the New Green Deal: The Path Towards Sustainable Agriculture’. This theme referred to the European Green Deal’s primary objective of tackling the current major environmental, climate and societal challenges.
