Introduction and problem definition
Climate change poses a critical threat to agriculture, affecting farmers, food security, and economies globally. The Simulation of Agricultural Production and Climate Change (SAPCC) project employs NetLogo for agent-based modeling to address this challenge. Its primary aim is to assist farmers, scientists, and policymakers in understanding and preparing for the impact of climate change on agriculture.
SAPCC focuses on modeling how climate variables, such as temperature, precipitation, and soil conditions, influence crop yields and soil fertility over time. Users can explore various climate scenarios and assess adaptation strategies within the simulation. By analyzing real-world data on crop types, soil conditions, precipitation patterns, temperature fluctuations, and irrigation methods, SAPCC provides insights into how climate changes affect crop cultivation and agriculture's long-term sustainability.
