Abstract
The application of climate smart agriculture (CSA) procedure has been recognized as a significant part in offering resolutions to the challenging issues of climate change (CC) and its extenuation for agricultural and environmental sustainability (AES). Moreover, it has been highlighted that several agricultural activities in several countries could be linked to the high amount of greenhouse gas emissions. The application of CSA technologies would play a significant role in the aspect of capacity building, skill and managerial future adoptions as well as intelligent management of natural resources for AES. Numerous biosensors and biosensing technologies (BSTs) like nanoparticles (NPs) and polymers along with their enormous benefits are presently being applied globally for resolving most of the challenging issues in AES. Nevertheless, it is important to integrate multi-faceted procedures for AES, so as to effectively apply biosensors that could conceivably be employed for various applications particularly in the area of CSA for AES. Hence, this chapter provides an assessment of BSTs and their wide-ranging benefits in CSA along with their role in AES. The restrictions confronted by some of the projecting BSTs particularly in relationship with CSA will be emphasized, and as well offer suitable recommendations for the improvement in AES.
