英文文献：Modelling the Effects of Climate Change on Agriculture in South Africa: The Case of The Western Cape
英文文献作者：van Zyl, Johan,Vink, Nick,Erasmus, Barend,van Jaarsveld, Albert,Kirsten, Johann F.
英文文献摘要：
Two different methodologies are linked to determine the effects of climate change on the Western Cape farm sector in South Africa. First, it uses a general circulation model to model climate change. Second, a sectoral mathematical programming model is used to determine these effects on key variables of the farm economy. Results indicate that less water will be available to agriculture. This will have a negative overall impact, with both producer and consumer welfare decreasing. Total employment in the farm sector will also decrease as producers switch to extensive farming. The total decline in welfare falls disproportionately on the poor.
