The book has been structured into five primary categories: Weather & Agromet Service, Pest & Diseases, Climatic Influences on Agriculture and Horticultural Crops, Climatic Influences on Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, and ICT Application in Agriculture. This publication provides comprehensive information on the probable consequences of climatic variability on diverse agricultural and horticultural crops, including pest and disease incidences, and their corresponding remedial measures. The book also discusses the impact of climate change in the animal husbandry sector, particularly in terms of summer infertility, productivity, and disease spectrum, in a clear and practical manner. Additionally, the book takes into account fisheries, both inland and marine, considering fish productivity and disease incidence.

The book also features forecasting models that provide early warnings with weather forecasts, emphasizing the development of strategies for Resilient Agriculture. The application of ICT in agriculture is also covered in the book, serving as a comprehensive guide to the potential impacts on agriculture and related sectors, and suggesting ways to address the challenges posed by weather fluctuations.
