The pest associated losses likely to increase as a result of changes in crop diversity and clim ate change. Climate change and climate variability will have major implication for water availability forest cover, biodiversity, crop production, and food security (Fig. 1) Changes in rainfall pattern are of greater importance for agriculture than the annual changes in temperature, especially in regions where lack of rainfall may be a limiting factor for crop production. date: 2013 date_type: published publisher: Scientific Publishers place_of_pub: Jodhpur ,India pagerange: 1-3 pages: 474 event_title: International Conference on Insect Science event_location: Bangalore, India event_dates: 14-17 February 2013 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE isbn: 9788172337971 book_title: Deployment of Transgenic Crops for Pest Management: Ecological Considerations and Their Biosafety to the Environment editors_name: Koul, O editors_name: Dhaliwal, G S editors_name: Khokhar, S editors_name: Singh, R related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=%22Biological+Consequences+of+Climate+Change+on+Arthropod+Biodiversity+and+Pest+Management%22&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_type: pub citation: Sharma, H C (2013) Biological Consequences of Climate Change on Arthropod Biodiversity and Pest Management.
