Abstract

The main source of food for Bangladesh comes from the crop cultivation. The agricultural sector of Bangladesh gets huge impacts from climate changes like floods, droughts and salinity. To overcome this problem with ensuring food security, we need smart cultivation. Crop diversification helps farmers to adapt to climate change by reducing risk from floods, droughts and salinity. This method improves soil quality with water sustainability, climate change which supports smart agriculture for sustainable food security. The primary objective of this research is to discover and review various crop diversification strategies for the country of Bangladesh as well as understand how to increase crop yield while also maintaining a Climate-Smart approach to ensure long term success for the agricultural sectors. This study has analyzed secondary data from sources like the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) and Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) which contain agricultural data of Bangladesh as late as from 1994 to as latest as 2023. Quantitative based research was the method used for the analyzing of data. Several agriculture related indicators such as Soil Quality Index, Water Sustainability Index, Climate Resilience Index and more indicators from 1994 to 2023 were used from the mentioned sources. Furthermore, descriptive based analysis was utilized in order to assess the frequency and intensity of our climate. The analyzing result shows that by improving soil quality with water management system and biodiversity are strongly related to higher crops yields and improve food security. For instance, in 2014 and 2023 soil and biodiversity scores were above 75, crop yield increased around 6 tons per hectare. On the other hand, during years of poor soil and water condition scores less than 60, yield dropped to 2-3 tons per hectare. Production of corps started improving after 2018, which is consistent with slight gains in food security indicators. In Bangladesh, crop diversification helps the farmers to protect their land from the effects of climate change. The farmers grow different kinds of crops for the reason that farmers can protect the soil, reduce insects and get good quality crops when the climate changes. To make this system successful, farmers are in need of training, good quality seeds, market support and official assistance.
