The Impact Of Climate Change On The Agriculture In India

Abstract

In order to overcome these obstacles, policies that take into account farmers' views of and responses to the rapidly changing climate are deemed necessary. The current study thoroughly evaluates the literature on the perceptions and adaptations of Indian farmers, with a particular focus on Scopus and Web of Science. The results show that most Indian farmers have seen both irregular and decreasing rainfall and rising temperatures, which is consistent with meteorological data. This report estimates the economic impact of climate change on Indian agriculture. I compute the impact of random differences in weather each year on agricultural output using a 40-year district-level panel data collection spanning over 200 Indian districts. These panel estimates include the within-year adjustments made by farmers to annual weather shocks. Assuming that farmers have limited ability to quickly identify and adapt to changing mean climate conditions, I argue that these estimates, which are based on short-term weather effects, are equally applicable to assessing the medium-term economic effects of climate change. In this article, we'll discuss. The implications of global warming on agriculture in India.
