Effects of Climate Change and Viarability on the Agricultural
Production Systems provides an integrated assessment of global
climate change's impact on agriculture at the farm level, in the
context of farm level adaptation decisions. Ten agricultural areas
in the Upper Midwest region - the heart of the United States' corn
belt - were subjected to climate change and changing climate
variability scenarios through simulations of future climate using
results from general circulation models. Crop growth models,
calibrated to the study sites, were used to simulate yields under
varying climate conditions. Farm level production and economic
analyses were performed to determine what adaptation strategies
might be best utilized to maintain production and profitability for
producers under conditions of global climate change and changing
climate variability. Similar integrated analyses from Australia and
Argentina provide comparisons from different regions.
