Yim, H. and Dall’erba, S. Impact of Climate Change on U.S. Agricultural Trade and Food Manufacturing.
Abstract: This chapter assesses how projected climate change may reshape U.S. agricultural trade networks and affect downstream food manufacturing. Future climate variables—including growing degree days, precipitation, drought, and wetness measured using the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index—are drawn from statistically downscaled CMIP6 global climate model projections. The analysis considers three future horizons—2030, 2050, and 2075—and two socioeconomic pathways, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5. By combining projected climate conditions with population-driven changes in regional demand, the chapter examines how agricultural trade flows and food-input sourcing patterns may evolve under climate change and how these adjustments may affect food manufacturing.
Yim, H. and Dall’erba, S. Factors Driving the Impact of Temperature and Precipitation in Agriculture.
Abstract: This chapter conducts a comprehensive meta-analysis of the Ricardian literature on agricultural adaptation, synthesizing evidence on how climate factors affect farmland values and net revenues across 1,925 estimates from 76 studies. We quantify the heterogeneous impacts of temperature and precipitation on agricultural profitability and land values worldwide, exploring variation by crop type, irrigation status, and methodological approach.
