报告内容:
This paper provides new evidence of long-run climate change adaptation in US agriculture. Focusing on the past two decades, our long-difference estimates suggest modest losses due to extreme heat, even though conventional panel estimates still imply sizable heat damage. Our results indicate that emerging long-run adaptation since 2000 mitigates short-run heat impacts by more than half, contrasting with the minimal adaptation observed in earlier years. This long- run heat adaptability is seen in both crop yields and farm profits. Heat-induced adjustments in production inputs, practices, technology, and farm consolidation help explain the enhanced adaptability.
