How limiting factors drive agricultural adaptation to climate change
Consensus is growing that agriculture is vulnerable to climate change and adaptation responses are necessary to minimize impacts. Nonetheless, the diversity of potential impacts, agro-ecological contexts and regional capacity for change make understanding adaptation behaviors challenging and ensure that climate change adaptation will not be the same across all contexts. Considering this heterog...

متن کاملModelling Agricultural Production Risk and the Adaptation to Climate Change
A model that integrates biophysical simulations in an economic model is used to analyze the impact of climate change on crop production. The biophysical model simulates future plantmanagement-climate relationships and the economic model simulates farmers’ adaptation actions to climate change using a nonlinear programming approach. Beyond the development of average yields, special attention is d...
متن کاملPredicting how adaptation to climate change could affect ecological conservation: secondary impacts of shifting agricultural suitability
Climate change directly threatens a significant fraction of the Earth’s species. Changing precipitation and temperature conditions likely will alter the geographical ranges of species and may drive many to extinction (Parmesan & Yohe, 2003; Thomas et al., 2004). Climate change is also likely to trigger a wide range of secondary impacts, whereby efforts by people to mitigate and Department of En...
متن کاملchallenges of agricultural extension systems in adaptation to climate change: the perception of fars agricultural specialists
climate is changing and various scenarios indicate accelerated climate change in the future. if farmers and rural residents’ capacities do not enhance to adapt to the impacts of climate change, the impacts will overwhelm on agriculture and rural communities. extension systems can play an important role in agricultural adaptation to climate change. therefore, the aim of this research was to expl...
