Cover Journal Sustainability Impacts Soil Acidification Climate Change Future Crop

Jimma et al (2024) evaluate agricultural sustainability in Ethiopia under climate change and soil acidity. Using EcoCrop, they assess crop suitability for teff, maize, barley, and wheat. Soil acidification diminishes suitability, particularly for teff, barley, and wheat, indicating significant challenges for future crop production. They emphasize the importance of implementing precautionary measures to mitigate soil acidification in climate change adaptation strategies.
