Abstract

Sugarcane is a crucial crop for producing bioenergy and sugar, and it helps Pakistan's GDP. Extreme weather events are becoming more intense and frequent as a result of global warming and rising greenhouse gas emissions. A significant environmental stressor that restricts sugarcane growth, production, and metabolism globally is temperature. The development of plants involves a variety of biochemical processes, many of which are extremely sensitive to temperature stress. The production of sugarcane is currently greatly affected by temperature stress, and methods for achieving high sugarcane yields under temperature stress are key agricultural objectives. The sugarcane plant has developed a variety of acclimation and avoidance strategies to combat various environmental stresses. The capacity to produce and convey signals, as well as biochemical and physiological changes, are necessary for plant survival under various conditions. Because sugarcane has a high vulnerability to natural hazards, a relatively limited adaptive capacity, and a weak forecasting system, climate change will have a significant impact on sugarcane production globally in the future. In this paper, we briefly discuss the effects of climate change on sugarcane, the production of sugar in many nations, particularly Pakistan, and future challenges for sugar production under a changing climate scenario, and we suggest mitigation techniques for the adverse consequences of climate change.
