Mainstreaming Grassroots Level Adaptation and Building Climate Resilient Agriculture in SAT* Bangladesh
2013
Climate change is becoming severe and has had a
negative impact on agriculture and farmers’ livelihoods
in Thailand. The climate change impacts on crop yield
possibly leads to food insecurity globally. Scientists
have projected a major climate change in the middle
of the 21st century (2045-2065). The average monthly
maximum temperature in Thailand is expected to
increase by 3-4oC and monthly minimum temperature
is expected to increase by more than 4oC throughout
the country (Chinvanno 2010). The regions, ie, the
Northeast, Central and the Northern, received less
than 1,200 mm annual rainfall (1970-2005) and it is
the driest area of the country. Agriculture in Thailand
is already impacted by frequent drought or dry spells,
flood, unpredictable rainfall and heat waves.
