Bossuet |Water scarcity will be one of the main issues of the 21 st century, because of competing needs between civil, industrial, and agriculture use. While agriculture is the largest user of water, its share is bound to decrease as societies develop. C[...]![]()
Article
The economic effects of global warming have gained considerable attention in the recent economic literature. While the relationship between rainfall and agriculture is well known, precipitations alone do not capture the soil water availability, [...]![]()
Article
This paper analyses the impacts and water policy implications of an increase of perennial crops on irrigation water requirements and on the vulnerability of the agricultural system to climatic events in the case of the Guadalquivir River basin. [...]![]()
Article
CONTEXT The Mediterranean basin and specifically Northeast Italy are recognised as climate change hotspots. The latter is a key socio-economic area in Europe among the most agriculturally productive. However, increasingly frequent drought period[...]![]()

Rainfall in the Maghreb and the Iberian Peninsula arrived too late to bring a beneficial effect on crops. Crop failures occurred in several important grain-producing regions of Spain, Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. In other areas, crop growing co[...]![]()
Rapport, Expertise, Working Paper
The Maghreb and the Iberian Peninsula are facing one of the worst seasonal droughts in recent decades. In comparison with the previous outlook, this resulted in a downward revision to well-below average expectations for the final production part[...]![]()
Article
More frequent and punctuated severe events such as dry spells are among the more salient manifestations of climate change. Because dry spells often co-occur both with heat waves and with longer-term agricultural drought and their effects may int[...]![]()
