摘要：Climate change is real and the effects of climate change vary with different spatial scales. At a broader global scale, climate change may have negligible impact whereas at the local and regional scales, the impact may be severe and substantial. For instance, at the local/regional levels of an agricultural ecosystem, climate change may impact agricultural sustainability in two interrelated ways. First, it may reduce the long-term ability of the agroecosystem to provide enough food and fiber for the world¡¯s population and second, it may induce alteration in agro-climatic conditions and spatially shift agroecosystems, thus endangering natural habitats and their floral and faunal diversities. Climate change is, therefore, a serious concern for agricultural ecosystems and there is a need for an agrobiodiversity conservation approach to combat with these problems.
