Full Description

This timely Handbook examines the effects of climate change on the agriculture industry. It also presents contemporary scholarship associated with recent explorations in climate change impacts, adaptation, and mitigation in diverse agricultural contexts across the globe.
Expert contributors explore a wide range of adaptation measures and their quantification, providing insight into advancements already in place, from farm-level to state-level support. Chapters identify the industry's need to further tackle climate change related issues, including increasing food demand, relationships with policymakers and opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Using different estimation approaches, precision levels and data sources, the authors apply various methodologies to measure the impact and value of adaptation in the agricultural sector.

This Handbook is valuable to scholars and students of environmental and agricultural economics and climate change. Its focus on impacts, adaptation, and mitigation makes this a vital resource for researchers and policy analysts working on climate change and agriculture in federal and state government agencies, as well as staff of international agencies and developmental organizations.
