The agriculture in the world under the changing climate scenario is facing many challenges and needs utmost attention and support for the development of adaptive, resilient and sustainable livelihoods. Research outputs generated in addressing these challenges faced by agriculture need to be immediately available to all the stakeholders for understanding and developing suitable solutions. Therefore, the Open Access India  is proposing AgriXiv, a preprints repository for agriculture with the support of Open Science Framework to facilitate the sharing of interim research results.
