The present study aims at providing insights, based on disaggregated micro-level
surveyed data, about the climate resilient crop production strategies available for small,
medium and big landholder farmers by investigating a number of micro-level factors –
ranging from socio-economic to demographic – that assess the farmers’ capability for
the adaptation of climate change strategies. This research study gradually maintains three
contemplation in the analysis: primarily; the study focuses on the nexus between climate
change and crops production, Secondly; study estimates the impact of climate change
adaptation strategies on crops production, Thirdly, the novelty of the study lies in putting
forward the economic, social and demographic factors which envisages that how the
farmers can enhance their capacity to become more effective in adapting the strategies.
Our conclusive findings suggest that, for the farmers producing crops at small scale, the
farmers’ health and medical treatment, education level, gender, marital status, land
ownership, and access to market are the significant factors augment farmers’ adaption
capacity to climate change, while for the farmers producing crops at a significantly lagers
scale, their experience does matter. The study would be helpful in suggesting prudent
policy on agriculture crops production that on which grounds the different farmers, who
have some different level of crop production and farm size, can be provided
opportunities to limit the devastating effects of climate change in Pakistan.
