Climate Change Means Farmers Need to Adapt
Northern Ghana is noted for perennial low and varying agricultural production and this is manifest by persistent vulnerability of inhabitants (mostly farmers) to food insecurity. The low agricultural production has been linked to effects of climate change. New technologies and cultivation practices aimed...
Temporal changes in anthropogenic emissions (C emissions/Mg/min, where min refers to minute) of CO2–C: (A) from fossil fuel combustion since 1750, (B) from land use change since 1750, (C) total emissions from fossil fuel plus land use change, and (D) comparative emissions from fossil ...
Taloustieteen laitos, Ympäristöekonomia Agriculture’s contribution to climate change is controversial as it is a significant source of greenhouse gases but also a sink of carbon. Hence its economic and technological potential to mitigate climate change have been argued to be notewo...
Using micro-data from Peruvian households, we find that high temperatures reduce agricultural productivity, increase area planted, and change crop mix. These findings are consistent with farmers using input adjustments as a short-term mechanism to attenuate the effect of extreme heat on output. This...
Climate change may cause changes in precipitation patterns. What should farmers do? A. Continue to use traditional farming methods. B. Depend only on rainwater for irrigation. C. Adapt to new conditions and use water-saving techniques. D. Plant only one type of crop. 相关知识点: ...
Changing land into farms or pastures (牧场) removes forests and worsens climate change. And climate change is 1 farms that already exist. Thus, we have to take measures to grow more crops to 2 a growing global population. A greenhouse is a building almost entirely 3 glass or plastic. This...
Sam Dean, NIWA's chief scientist of climate, said on Wednesday that while farmers are known for their resilience and ability to adapt to changing conditions, climate change will "almost certainly go beyond any previous experience." NIWA is focusing on assisting farmers to plan for a changing cl...
