Climate change and agriculture have a dual mode of relationship. Agriculture is an important sector of the country’s economy and it significantly contributes to climate change by releasing greenhouse gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere. On the other hand, climate change is a global threat to food security and it can affect agriculture through variation of weather parameters. Reducing GHGs emission mainly methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from the agriculture could play a significant role in climate change mitigation. N2O is a potent greenhouse gas mainly emitted from rice-wheat cropping system. Agricultural lands are considered as one of the important anthropogenic sources of N2O emissions and it account almost 69% of the annual atmospheric N2O emission and application of commercial fertilizers is considered as a major contributor to the N2O emission. This book chapter focuses on the feasible soil and crop management practices to reduce the N2O emission from agriculture without compromising the productivity. Different environmental factors that have a major impact on N2O production are also discussed in this chapter. On urgent basis, the world needs to reduce the anthropogenic N2O emissions from agriculture and adapt its sustainable cropping system and food-production system to survive with climate change.
