متن کاملAssessment of Climate Change Impact on Eastern Washington Agriculture
An assessment of the potential impact of climate change and the concurrent increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration on eastern Washington State agriculture was conducted. Climate projections from four selected general circulation models (GCM) were chosen to evaluate impacts for the periods 20102039, 2030-2059 and 2070-2099, identified as 2020, 2040, and 2080 scenarios, respect...
متن کاملThe impact of climate change on smallholder and subsistence agriculture.
Some of the most important impacts of global climate change will be felt among the populations, predominantly in developing countries, referred to as "subsistence" or "smallholder" farmers. Their vulnerability to climate change comes both from being predominantly located in the tropics, and from various socioeconomic, demographic, and policy trends limiting their capacity to adapt to change.

متن کاملThe potential impact of climate change on Taiwan’s agriculture
This paper intends to estimate the potential impact of climate change on Taiwan’s agricultural sector. Yield response regression models are used to investigate the climate change’s impact on 60 crops. A price-endogenous mathematical programming model is then used to simulate the welfare impacts of yield changes under various climate change scenarios. Results suggest that both warming and climat...
متن کاملThe Impact of Climate Change on Indian Agriculture
This paper estimates the economic impact of climate change on Indian agriculture. I estimate the e¤ect of random year-to-year variation in weather on agricultural output using a 40-year district-level panel data set covering over 200 Indian districts. These panel estimates incorporate farmerswithin-year adaptations to annual weather shocks. I argue that these estimates, derived from short-run ...
