Climate change and climate variability modify environmental conditions, generating extreme weather events that affect agricultural production in the Flat Plain Homogeneous Environmental Unit (Department of Río Cuarto, Province of Córdoba). In order to face these events and reduce the vulnerability of production systems, it is necessary to generate adaptation strategies. The purpose of this work is to climatically characterize the study area, identify variables that affect the resilience of corn farmers to the occurrence of drought events and determine indicators to evaluate their resilience....
Climate change and climate variability modify environmental conditions, generating extreme weather events that affect agricultural production in the Flat Plain Homogeneous Environmental Unit (Department of Río Cuarto, Province of Córdoba). In order to face these events and reduce the vulnerability of production systems, it is necessary to generate adaptation strategies. The purpose of this work is to climatically characterize the study area, identify variables that affect the resilience of corn farmers to the occurrence of drought events and determine indicators to evaluate their resilience.The characterization of droughts in the study area was carried out using the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and the Standardized Evapotranspiration and Precipitation Index (SPEI), both showing a negative trend for the winter and breaking points in the trend in 1995, suggesting greater severity of agronomic and hydrological droughts from that time on.
