| Résumé : | Climate change is one of the world's most critical issues, particularly in areas with dry and hot climates, where even minor changes can cause major problems. Developing countries, such as Egypt, are having a difficult time adapting to climate change mitigation practices. Agriculture is the most vulnerable sector, as low precipitation and high temperatures have a significant impact on production. The primary goal of this study was to test this impact for the next 20 years by using bioeconomic models. We conducted some tests using rainfall and temperature data from the previous 20 years and discovered that the level of production was highly limited by these two factors, particularly high temperatures. Moreover, we tested a scenario involving the addition of a new variety that is heat resistant and requires less water than other crops and found out that it slightly increases revenues while offering a low level of production. |
