It starts by providing a basic understanding of climate change science followed by the relation of climate change to agriculture, the impact of which is discussed based on the particular impact of climate change on plant and animal physiology. The book further discusses the inclusion of the agriculture sector in various international climate change negotiations. It also reviews the cost and opportunities for agricultural projects through international climate change regimes, specifically the Clean Development Mechanism under the Kyoto Protocol. With this background and case studies of Nepal, the book finally proceeds to an explanation of the methodologies used to assess the impact of climate change on agriculture. 410 0$aAdvances in Asian human-environmental research. 606 $aClimatic changes$zDeveloping countries 606 $aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects$zDeveloping countries 615 0$aClimatic changes 615 0$aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects 676 $a363.73874 700 $aLall$b Keshav Maharjan$01753365 701 $aJoshi$b Niraj Prakash$01753366 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437942503321 996 $aClimate change, agriculture and rural livelihoods in developing countries$94189199 997 $aUNINA
