Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Mekong River Basin, severe floods and droughts often occurred. Especially in Northeast Thailand where the irrigation ratio of agricultural land was still low, agricultural productivity had been unstable. Therefore, in this study, agricultural damage function was estimated to evaluate the impact of future climate change on agricultural economic loss. As a result, the relation between wet season rice production and 3 month accumulated rainfall (June-Aug) was high and positive. And then, economic loss by weather induced agricultural damage was estimated and impact on farmer’s household income was evaluated by using the agricultural statistic and rice price data from 1981 until 2013. Recently, agricultural economic loss of around 600 million Baht was often occurred in northeast Thailand. However, farmers household income was mostly relying on non-agricultural sector so that agricultural economic loss was less than 10% of their annual income.
