Climate change effects on Chickpea yield and its variability in Andhra Pradesh, India by Kumar, K. Nirmal Ravi, Reddy, M. Jagan Mohan, Babu, Suresh Chandra

“…Mann–Kendall (MK) test and Sen’s slope (SS) method were employed to analyze monthly rainfall trends and minimum and maximum temperature trends. Results of Just and Pope (panel data) quadratic and Cobb-Douglas methods revealed that monthly minimum temperature positively influenced the mean yield of chickpea (0.22% and 0.16%, respectively). …”

The potential impact of climate change on Nigerian agriculture by Ajetomobi, Joshua, Ajakaiye, Olusanya, Gbadegesin, Adeniyi

“…The framework for the analysis consists of a stochastic production function suggested by Just and Pope (1978, 1979). The results show that the productivity of more than half of the staple crops in Nigeria is threatened by increase in total annual rainfall and extreme temperature nationally and across states in Nigeria. …”
