Impact of climate change on crop production and potential adaptive measures in the olifants catchment, South Africa
Climate change is expected to substantially reduce future crop yields in South Africa, thus
affecting food security and livelihood. Adaptation strategies need to be implemented to
mitigate the effect of climate change-induced yield losses. In this paper, we used the WEAP-
MABIA model, driven by six CORDEX climate change data for representative concentration
pathways (RCPs) 4.5 and 8.5, to quantify the effect of climate change on several key crops,
namely maize, soya beans, dry beans, and sunflower, in the Olifants catchment. The study …
