Abstract

Currently, more than eight billion inhabitants seek to meet their food needs. Nonetheless, phenomena such as climate change are affecting agricultural production capacities. It is therefore essential to generate information on the most likely effects. This research aimed to analyze the effect of climate change on productive capacities (yield and production) in the Cuitzeo Basin Region of the state of Michoacán, Mexico. First, the presence of climate change was sampled; and secondly, what has happened with agricultural yield and production was identified. The results indicated that: 1) the signal of climate change is present in the region; and 2) significant differences were found between rainfed crops that showed a trend of climate change.
