Climate Change: Implications for Indian Agriculture
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has projected that the global mean surface temperature will rise by 2.0 4.5oC by 2100 due to increase in carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere. Climate variability is also projected to increase, leading to uncertain onsets of monsoons and more frequent extremes of weather, such as more severe droughts and floods. These environmental changes...

concentration of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) by some 30 percent since the industrial revolution, and that rise continues at a rate of approximately 0.4 percent per year. Despite its seemingly minute concentration (only 0.035 percent), CO 2 inhibits the escape of longwave (thermal) radiation emitted by the earth throughout the entire atmosphere, a process known as the “greenhouse effect.” The presenc...
متن کاملEconomic Implications of Global Climate Change for World Agriculture
This paper challenges the hypothesis that negative yield effects in key temperate grain producing regions of the world resulting from global climate change would have a serious impact on world food production. Model results demonstrate that even with concurrent productivity losses in the major grain producing regions of the world, global warming will not seriously disrupt world agricultural mar...
متن کاملClimate Change and Agriculture Reconsidered
Despite the existence of a large and growing literature on the potential impact of climate change on agriculture, there still exists some disagreement about the magnitude and even the sign. Our own research suggests that the impact on U.S. agriculture is likely to be strongly negative, based on a series of studies in which we link farmland values to climate variables, and crop yields to both cl...
متن کاملClimate Change, Agriculture and Poverty
The Policy Research Working Paper Series disseminates the findings of work in progress to encourage the exchange of ideas about development issues. An objective of the series is to get the findings out quickly, even if the presentations are less than fully polished. The papers carry the names of the authors and should be cited accordingly. The findings, interpretations, and conclusions expresse...
