Abstract

An investigation on climate change impact on green gram was conducted at Agronomy farm, NAU, Navsari, Gujarat during the rabi seasons of 2021-22. The calibrated and validated DSSAT CROPGRO simulation model was used to determine the productivity of green grams under various climate change scenarios. In this experiment, the effects of CO2 concentration, solar radiation and maximum and minimum temperatures on green gram productivity were examined individually and in combination. According to the sensitivity of the DSSAT CROPGRO model, under the conditions of projected climate change, the best case scenario for its favourable impact on green gram yield was a rise in CO2 concentration (600 ppm), along with solar radiation up to a certain level (1 unit), which may nullified the adverse effect of increases in temperature on green gram productivity.
