Potential of Melia dubia-wheat based agroforestry system to cope up with climate change

Climate change has impact on agricultural production, because it raises CO2 levels in the atmosphere, which leads to higher temperatures. Agroforestry systems aid climate adaptation and mitigation by providing relatively lower temperature beneath tree canopy. Therefore, diversified are needed be identified studied throughout world that can help annual crops better survival conditions with least effects yield. Although food crop output agroforestry is than open regions, seen capable of supporting security, soil water conservation, land use diversification, micronutrient adequacy most importantly mitigation. The present study showed all parameters (i.e., DBH, height canopy spread) recorded intercropped (Melia dubia based system) were found compared trees devoid intercrops. Trees intercrops more spread, DBH (6.9 m, 16.3m, 56.6 m) as pure stand (6.6 16.2 55.6 Melia trees. depression (CTD) wheat grown was -5.58 0C whereas; -5.27 CTD non-shaded conditions.
