摘要

由于气候变暖和水资源短缺加剧，农民应越来越多地采用滴灌等节水灌溉技术。我们分析了意大利农民如何通过改变灌溉技术组合来适应气候变化。我们对来自 5876 个意大利农场的数据采用了两阶段计量经济学模型。我们发现，农民对气温升高的最初反应是减少地表灌溉比例。当气温进一步升高时，农民会转向更多的喷灌。我们的结果表明，农民并没有根据气候变化自主转向滴灌，这表明需要政府采取激励措施来鼓励这种转变。

Adaptation to climate change: The irrigation technology mix of Italian farmers

Farmers should increasingly adopt more water-efficient irrigation technologies—such as drip irrigation—as a result of climate warming and aggravating water scarcity. We analyze how Italian farmers adapt to climate change by changing their irrigation technology mix. We apply a two-stage econometric model to data from 5876 Italian farms. We find that farmers' initial reaction to increasing temperatures is reducing their surface-irrigated fractions. When temperatures increase further, farmers switch toward more sprinkler irrigation. Our results show that farmers are not autonomously moving to drip irrigation in response to climate change, suggesting that government incentives are needed to encourage this transition.
