Climate Change as a Global Challenge in Agricultural Economics

In the 20th century, humanity faced climate change (global warming) adversely affecting agriculture (affecting soil fertility, crop yields, disease and animal deaths, water resources depletion, etc.). The study is based on general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, induction, deduction, analogy, abstraction, and concretization. It aims to assess the negative impact of climate change on the agricultural sector of the economy while forecasting and modeling proposals for a possible solution to this global problem. This process is facilitated by the study of international and national experience in the legal regulation of climate change based on the formal and legal methods. The study proposes further consolidation of efforts at the national, sub-regional, regional, and international levels; the development of flexible international legal instruments; a combination of regulatory measures with national interests; the correlation of global sustainable development goals and alignment of political priorities; the increase in the role of basic and applied scientific research, including an interdisciplinary plan, which will allow taking environmental, economic and social aspects into account.
