Adaptation Options in Agriculture to Climate Change: a Typology
Adaptation in agriculture to climate change is important for impact and vulnerability assessment and for the development of climate change policy. A wide variety of adaptation options has been proposed as having the potential to reduce vulnerability of agricultural systems to risks related to climate change, often in an ad hoc fashion. This paper develops a typology of adaptation to systematica...
متن کاملMicro-Climate Engineering for Climate Change Adaptation in Agriculture
Can farmers change micro-climates around their crops as an adaptation to climate change? We present a novel adaptation technique for pistachio growers in California, meant to deal with warm winters. A kaolin clay mud is sprayed on dormant trees, blocking sunlight and lowering tree bud temperatures, preventing adverse yield effects of low chill. Climate predictions for California suggest that wi...
متن کاملDeveloping Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation Metrics for Agriculture
The purpose of this report is to explore useful metrics needed for estimating the short-term (20-30 years) and long-term (80-100 years) impacts of climate change on agriculture, both in monetary and non-monetary terms, helping decision–makers evaluate, at regional to national levels, which adaptation strategies and policy options potentially minimize risk and maximize benefits under changed cli...
متن کاملClimate change impacts and adaptation assessment in Bangladesh
Bangladesh is likely to be one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change. This paper discusses the possible impacts of climate change in Bangladesh through tropical cyclones, storm surges, coastal erosion and back water effect. The possible increase in cyclone frequency in the Bay of Bengal, lying south of Bangladesh, due to climate change is looked at by analyzing the cyc...
متن کاملClimate Change Adaptation in Light of Sustainable Agriculture
Agricultural activity has always included adaptation to a number of diverse stresses and opportunities–elements that continue influencing developments in the agri-food sector. Climate and weather conditions are a good example of factors that require on-going adaptation. With climate change they take on even more significance. Based on data from Canadian producers, this article identifies severa...
