Jyoti Sudhakar Narsude

Job title:

PhD researcher

Area of work:

Nature-based land management solution to restore the resilience of soil for a productive food system. Agroforestry contributes to the integrated tree and crop benefits which focus on ecological as well as socioeconomic development through enhancing farming, habitat for wildlife, soil health, and water flow management leading to climate change mitigation. My project work focuses on the rhizospheric carbon inputs considering the decomposition rate of leaf litterfall. There is a need to study this topic for insights into root exudate composition in maintaining nutrient availability in soil as these nature-based nutrients can reduce the use of fertilizers and help to improve the productivity of crops.

What are the big issues that COP29 needs to address? What are your hopes for the negotiations?

1. Need to increase climate finance for developing countries to adopt strategies for dealing with climate change by reducing their greenhouse gas emissions from all sectors.
2. Negotiators should be accountable for reaching the policies at the community level within a specific timeframe to achieve the goal of COP

What’s your message for world leaders at COP29?

Everyone must be the accountable to reduce the carbon emission by adapting sustainable way of living.
