Adapting to a changing climate

Farmers are adapting to different climatic conditions and weather patterns all the time; it is the nature of farming. The future impacts of climate change are based on modelled predictions and extensive knowledge and understanding of the impact of climate and temperature on weather patterns. This modelling suggests more frequent and more prolonged adverse events such as drought, floods, and snowstorms.
