Climate Change and Agriculture in the Northeast: Teamwork, Responses, and Results


Author:
Daniel Tobin, Erin Lane, and Ron Hoover
Year:
2015
Abstract:
Not everyone may agree on the best adaptation practices all the time, but as opposed to rigid guidelines, a whole suite of options are being developed that will allow individuals to pick and choose what best works for them. But being proactive in ways that have both an economic and environmental outlook will determine agriculture’s success in responding to changes in climate. With collaboration and cooperation, the northeast can meet the challenge to maintain and improve production. The biggest risk is not climate change itself; it is being passive as these changes occur.
