The book ‘Agroclimatology of Fruit Crops: Focus on Climate Resilient Strategies’ offers a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationship between climate and fruit crop production, with a special emphasis on resilience in the face of climate change. Fruit crops, being perennial and often sensitive to climatic fluctuations, are particularly vulnerable to extreme weather events, shifting rainfall patterns, and temperature anomalies. This book addresses these challenges by presenting scientific insights and practical approaches to understanding and managing agroclimatic risks in fruit production systems. Drawing upon real-time data, long-term climate trends, and field observations, it provides detailed assessments of climate suitability and vulnerability for key fruit species like mango, apple, banana, citrus, grapes, litchi, guava, and others. Special focus is given to the effects of climate variability and change, particularly extreme weather events, unseasonal frosts, and heatwaves, which are increasingly impacting fruit productivity and quality. A major strength of the book lies in its focus on climate-resilient strategies—such as selection of climate-resilient varieties, microclimate management, integrated orchard design, and weather-informed decision-making—to ensure sustainable fruit productivity. The book also discusses policy dimensions, including the role of agrometeorological advisories, insurance schemes, and institutional support in strengthening resilience at the farm level. With climate change posing unprecedented challenges to horticulture, this book fills a critical knowledge gap by bridging agroclimatological theory with field-level applications. It is an essential resource for shaping adaptive and forward-looking fruit production systems suited to the 21st century.
