Abstract

The research aimed to study the impact of major climatic variables such as temperature and rainfall rates on the most important variables of the agricultural sector and crop production of major crop groups, with reference to the extent of adaptation of some crops with climate variables during it's life duration, the major results of the research showed the significant positive direct effect of emissions on temperatures and then the effect on rainfall rates. As well as the significant effect of the most important variables of the different agricultural sector with average temperatures and rainfall rates in the four seasons on the net agricultural income . As well as the direct significant effect of temperature on each of the total production and the amount of water consumed for the following crops (maize, soybean, beet and banana), as well as the inverse significant effect of temperature on wheat productivity. The study recommends expanding the use of renewable energy in all different sectors to reduce heat emissions that increase climate changes, and the use of artificial intelligence applications that play an important role in producing more quality crops, mitigating the effects of climate changes and developing new varieties of crops that are affected by climate fluctuations to adapt climate change.
