Description

Product Description In farming systems across Canada, effective risk management isnecessary to deal with drought, flooding, and extreme weather, and toadapt to altered climate and weather conditions. Unfortunately, climatechange risks and opportunities are not always well understood amongresearchers and policy makers in the Canadian agri-food sector. Thisbook addresses that gap by providing a wide-ranging synopsis ofwhat climate change means for Canadian agriculture, exploring differentapproaches to the topic, and presenting examples of current research.It covers all agricultural regions and a wide variety of commodityproduction and farming systems. This comprehensive survey synthesizestwenty years of research on climate change and Canadianagriculture. Review This timely collection will be of interest to scholars, policymakers, and agriculturalists throughout North America and beyond. It offers both a comprehensive collection of recent research on the vulnerability of Canadian farming systems to climate change and a thorough and articulate presentation of the breadth of concepts and methods currently employed in climate change vulnerability assessments. -- Debra Davidson, University of Alberta ― Great Plains Research, Vol.18, No.2, Fall 2008 About the Author Ellen Wall is a research scientist in environmentalsciences; Barry Smit is a professor of geography andCanada Research Chair in Global Environmental Change; and Johanna Wandel is a postdoctoral research associatewith the Department of Geography – all at the University ofGuelph.
