Abstract

Differential environmental conditions in various geographical regions are not ample for growing crop plants to meet the required production. Such an environmental hindrance towards agriculture are varied, viz. biotic and abiotic stresses which limit productivity of crops. The scarcity of food production in 2050 is estimated 70% more production for growing world population. The efforts have been taken for crop production for requirement; however, sustainability in agriculture is always a challenge. One of the crucial ways to sustainable agriculture since long ago is breeding strategies which proved still for increasing crop production. In this context, various breeding techniques have been discussed for production crops in sustainable manner through novel and advanced strategies.
