Abstract

Two stage Discrete Sequential Stochastic Program is employed to investigate the farm adaptation under global climatic change. Multiple sources of production risk and adaptation are modeled providing a comprehensive farm impact assessment under future climate. Results indicate efficient adaptation by producers to climatic change in spite of a riskier production environment.
