1), the model’s robustness against more extreme climatic events remains to be fully constrained. Study limitations and future research directions Despite providing a robust, empirically-grounded assess- ment, the interpretation of these results must be made with consideration of the inherent limitations of this study, which simultaneously outline crucial pathways for future research aimed at enhancing food security projections in arid regions like Birjand: 1.

There is a need to quantify the shifting velocities of precipitation and temperature extremes across India’s agro-climatic zones. The existing studies have methodological and interpretative limitations that need to be addressed. There is a need to identify emerging hotspots in central and semi-arid India that demand urgent intervention for sustainable resource management.
