“…Similarly, a study in French coastal populations showed that they perceive the local changes in climate, weather, coral, and beaches, but they only regard it as a problem instead of a danger [41]. In contrast to the result from France, a study on the peri-urban community in Mexico that experiences a risk of drought indicated that the community perceives CC and treats it as a threat because their livelihood as brick producers is severely impacted by climate change [42]. A study on Canadian bivalve aquaculture indicated the importance of stakeholder perceptions of CC in adapting to these changes and further expanding the industry [43].…”

Climate change (CC) is one of the primary threats to the agricultural sector in developing countries. Several empirical studies have shown that the implementation of adaptation practices can reduce the adverse effects of CC. The likelihood of farmers performing adaptation practices is mostly influenced by the degree of CC impact that they perceive. Thus, we identified the characteristics of farmers that affect the degree of the CC impact that they perceive. We used data from the Indonesian Rice Farm Household survey consisting of 87,330 farmers. An ordered probit regression model was used to estimate the effect of each variable on the degree of the perceived impact of CC. The results of this study confirm those of previous empirical studies. Several variables that have been identified as having a positive effect on farmer adaptation practices, such as farmer education, land tenure, irrigation infrastructure, cropping system, chemical fertilizer application, access to extension services, and participation in farmer groups, negatively affect the degree of the perceived impact of CC. However, a different result was found in the estimation of the gender variable. We found that female farmers have a higher CC resilience and ability to withstand climatic shocks and risks than male farmers. Female farmers have a more positive perception of future farming conditions than male farmers. We recommend the implementation of a national adaptation policy that use and expand the channel of agricultural extension services to deliver the planned adaptation policy, and prioritizes farmers with insecure land tenure. Additionally, we encourage the increasing of female involvement in the CC adaptation practices and decision-making processes.

Climate change (CC) increases the frequency of flood and drought and is a significant threat to smallholder rice farming in Indonesia. Adapting to these changes is crucial to minimize the damages to the Indonesian food system. Accordingly, the Indonesian government has formulated National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) to mitigate the effect of climate change on priority sectors, including rice farming. To this end, the Indonesian government included climate change adaptation into the National Development Plan (2019–2024). Selecting the appropriate beneficiaries of this program is crucial to improve the efficacy of Indonesian climate policy. In the case of rice farming, farmers with a high probability to adapt are the appropriate beneficiaries of this program. Thus, this chapter aimed to identify the characteristics of Indonesian smallholder rice farmers with a high probability to adapt to climate change. To this end, this chapter used the findings of the study on 87,330 rice farmers in Indonesia. Education, gender, land tenure security, presence of irrigation infrastructure, application of chemical fertilizer, cropping system, access to extension services, and participation in farmer group are significant determinants of adaptation practices. The finding suggests that prioritizing farmers based on these characteristics are crucial to improve the efficacy of climate policy.

“…Different climatologists have reported that climate change can cause variation in temperature and precipitations [1]. The climate change impacts have already been noticed with different intensities around the world [2,3] concerning atmosphere temperature [4,5], rainfall regimes [6,7], water availability, and the intensification of climate extremes [8,9]. Algeria is one of the semi-arid countries and is affected to a higher degree by phenomena of climate change.…”

In this article, a trend study, in two watersheds Coastal-Oran and Macta (North-West of Algeria), is carried out using monthly and seasonal rainfall during the period 1975-2015 at 38 stations. Mann-Kendall (MK) and Innovative Trend Analysis (ITA) methods are applied comparatively. The aim of this study is to verify if the trend detection ability is the same in both methods. Monthly rainfall analysis by the MK test shows that 82% of the stations have no significant trends. In contrast, the ITA method detects positive (negative) trends in 56% (33%) of stations in the low rainfall component, 53% (40%) in the average and 41% (58%) in the high rainfall. On a seasonal scale, the MK test still not aware of trends in 75% of the studied stations, while the ITA shows that 63% (31%) of stations with increasing (decreasing) trends. Studying the rainfall trend, using the ITA and Mann-Kendall methods, in the same area can help to understand past variations and therefore extrapolate the results to other areas with the same climate. This is a crucial step in managing climate-related issues. In addition, the ITA detects hidden sub-trends in the low, medium and high components that the MK test does not, which shows the superiority of the ITA method over MK method.
