Director's Desk

Climate change is an urgent and pressing issue that is already affecting various regions around the globe, including South Asia. In India, the impact of climate change on pulse crop yields is particularly concerning. Rising temperatures, increased climate variability, and extreme weather events pose significant challenges to pulse plant growth and yields. These challenges include reduced crop productivity, increased vulnerability to diseases and pests, and changes in flowering and pollination patterns.
