Technological Challenge of Agriculture in Climate Change and the Advancement of Desertification in Developing Countries

Abstract

Climate change has a strong impact on agricultural production, which accentuates in developing countries, due to the lack of technology. From the perspective of food production, we must answer how to maintain agriculture in developing countries strongly affected by climate change, population growth, poverty and lack of technological capacity. The present mini review aims to explore the options that these communities have, which are fundamentally based on the development of technologies accessible to their reality, as the use of tolerant species such as quinoa and aloe or irrigation systems that improve water use efficiency. This article analyzes mechanisms and strategies of the plants to improve the efficiency in the use of water and the necessary requirements to establish a controlled deficit irrigation system
