Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Firstly, we coupled a model for crop growth and production under the regional water resources condition, which is estimated by a river discharge flow simulation model, with economic model. Next, we projected the climate and land use change impacts on crop production and the market price simultaneously. As a result, there were no significant differences in variations in market prices of crops under many climate and land use change scenarios (totally 100 cases). That is, climate and land use change induced the increase in market prices but did not affect the variations in market prices significantly. Specifically, in Vietnam and India, it was showed the high increase rate in price compared to the initial year, while the increase rate of Korea was the lowest. Detailed analyses implied that agricultural investment policy and world trade mechanisms absorbed such variations in market price due to climate and land use change, resulting in reduction in high market price volatility.
