The Economic Impacts of Climate Change: Evidence from Agricultural Profits and Random Fluctuations in Weather

Greenstone, Michael; Deschenes, Olivier - 2006

This paper measures the economic impact of climate change on US agricultural land by estimating the effect of the presumably random year-to-year variation in temperature and precipitation on agricultural profits. Using long-run climate change predictions from the Hadley 2 Model, the preferred...

Using Degree Days to Value Farmland

Massetti, Emanuele - 2015

Farmland values have traditionally been valued using seasonal temperature and precipitation. A new strand of the literature uses degree days over the growing season to predict farmland value. We find that degree days and daily temperature are interchangeable over the growing season. However, the...

Climate change and agriculture : farmer adaptation to extreme heat

Aragón, Fernando M.; Oteiza, Francisco; Rud, Juan Pablo - 2018

This paper examines how farmers adapt, in the short-run, to extreme heat. Using a production function approach and micro-data from Peruvian households, we find that high temperatures induce farmers to increase the use of inputs, such as land and domestic labor. This reaction partially attenuates...

Weather and Welfare: Health and Agricultural Impacts of Climate Extremes, Evidence from Mexico

Compean, Roberto Guerrero - Inter-American Development Bank - 2013

Using data for all 2,454 municipalities of Mexico for the period 1980-2010, this paper analyzes the relationship between exposure to extreme temperatures and precipitation and death, as well as the relationship between severe weather and agricultural income and crop production in the country. It...
