Comparison of our research work with few contributions.

SN	Paper	Outcome	Present work
1	Hatfield et al. (2015)	Authors concluded that water will be required for development of much influential adaptation strategies for offsetting the influences of high heat events associated with climate change [4].	Our study identified the critical factors in plants development as “light”, “temperature”, “stresses”; “water”, “drought”, “soil”; “pollution”, “fertilizers”, “deforestation”.
2	Du et al. (2020)	Author concluded that with drought stresses, the decrease in shoot biomass becomes much important than the decrease of biomass in the root of both soybean cultivars [8].	Nine factors in plants development, sub categorized in two levels (“climate factors”, “terrestrial factors”, “human factors”) have been compared and ranked by fuzzy AHP method to explore possible aspects to address the factors in plants development.
3	Orhan mete et al. (2021)	They revealed that fuzzy AHP is an applicable and effective approach to take more effective decisions in agricultural issues [19].	We utilized fuzzy AHP for recognition and comparative study and ranking of barriers in the growth of the several plants.
