Abstract
The climate change and climate variability topic has gained a lot of attention from researchers and academicians all around the globe because of its ill effects on our ecosystem, food production and on human livelihood. Agriculture being continuously and directly affected by precipitation and temperature, this sector is considered as one of the most climate-sensitive sectors. Climate change and climate variability pose a great risk to the world’s agricultural and natural resource systems which are already finding it difficult to cope with the growing food demand driven by population growth and the higher purchasing power in developing countries. The existing risks are compounded by uncertainty, pace of climate change and its regional effects.
