Message from the Conference Chair

“Join us for the International Conference on Climate Change and Agriculture in Tropical Latitudes 2025, hosted in beautiful Sri Lanka. This event unites experts from tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions to tackle the pressing challenges and seize the opportunities in agriculture today.

With tropical areas often underrepresented in scientific research, CCATL 2025 aims to bridge this critical data gap. Together, we will synthesize existing knowledge, foster collaboration, and enhance our understanding of climate change’s impact on global food security.

Be part of a transformative dialogue that seeks to rejuvenate agriculture and empower sustainable practices. Let’s cultivate solutions for a resilient future in agriculture!”
