Impacts of Surface Temperature Change and Climate Vulnerability on Agricultural Total Factor Productivity across Countries

초록

This study selected three developing countries situated in similar climate zones and three developed countries that provide the largest amounts of international aid to these nations. The analysis of temperature changes and climate vulnerability resulting from land use and land cover changes indicates that climate change has a significantly greater impact on the agricultural systems of developing countries. In particular, these countries exhibit relatively high vulnerability to extreme climatic events, which increases the likelihood of a sharp decline in agricultural productivity. Since the effects of climate change on agriculture differ between developed and developing countries, policy responses must be tailored and formulated in consideration of each country’s socio-economic conditions and agricultural structure.
