Maize is an important crop used as food, feed, and industrial raw material. Therefore, it critical to maximize maize yield on available land by using optimal inputs adapting challenges posed climate change. The Leaf Area Index (LAI) a key parameter that provides significant assistance in forecasting yields. This study focuses modeling the for maize. Specifically, compiles systematizes main findings of papers published over past approximately 10–15 years. Our results are organized presented based five most commonly models: CERES-Maize, AquaCrop, WOFOST, APSIM, RZWQM2. limitations these models’ applicability also discussed. We present models compare their minimum input requirements. Additionally, we evaluate performance across different zones, explore how integration remote sensing data sources can enhance model estimation accuracy, examine potential spatial scalability LAI modeling.

This study endeavored to analyze the progress made meet Sustainable Development Goals in terms of resource use, sustainable production and consumption, triple planetary crisis (i.e., climate change, biodiversity loss, pollutant emissions) at national regional levels Asia. The highlighted that toward consumption is still not sufficient ambitious targets. An urgent need for a comprehensive approach address emissions, use has been ascertained. China’s greenhouse gas emissions have surged tremendously. India also endeavoring decouple from growth via renewable energy. Vulnerable Pakistan seeks emission reduction financial aid. Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam outline strategies. Land change emerges as key loss driver, stressing land policies conservation. Material highlights call optimization, circular economies, innovative technology. Energy’s role development requires decoupling through efficiency, renewables, eco-friendly paths. Freshwater needs careful management sustainability, international collaboration policy reform are urged global water efficiency. Decoupling trends between growth, environmental impact show complex pattern, with feasibility absolute limited by interdependence.

Climate is one of the most important factors in agricultural productivity, which could directly or indirectly influence productivity since climate linked to physiological processes. This study investigates level adoption multiple change adaptation strategies (CCAS) Southwest Nigeria. A multistage sampling technique was employed select 330 smallholder maize farmers, while secondary data on rainfall and temperature area sourced from Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet). Descriptive statistics, a multivariate probit model fractional response were for study. The results show that farmers adopt mainly complementary strategies. also indicate farmer's membership an association, sex, age, education, farming experience, farm size, access credit information are main influencing CCAS result shows socio-economic institutional significantly influenced among area. Hence, recommends provision advisory service facility be intensified.
