This book explores the interaction between climate change and the
agriculture sector. Agriculture is essential to the livelihood of
people and nations, especially in the developing world; therefore,
any impact on it will have significant economic, social, and
political ramifications. Scholars from around the world and from
various fields have been brought together to explore this important
topic. The contributions found here analyze direct agronomic
effects, the economic impacts on agriculture, agricultural impacts
on the economy, agricultural mitigation, and farmer adaptation. The
authors argue that climate change is likely to have an extensive
impact on agriculture around the world through changes in
temperature, precipitation, concentrations of carbon dioxide, and
available water flows. This thorough and timely volume is an
invaluable resource for anyone interested in exploring the impacts
of climate change in arguably the most important sector of the
world economy. Economists, agronomists, and climate modelers in
academia and the public sector, policy analysts and development
agency staff, and graduate/postgraduate students will find this
remarkable volume a welcome addition to their collection.
