Climate change adaptation is essential for creating sustainable and resilient agricultural systems. Gaining insight into farmers' views on climate change is pivotal for the successful implementation 태국 바카라 adaptive policies. This interest has spurred multidisciplinary attention on how farmers make decisions regarding adaptation, 태국 바카라fering valuable perspectives on enhancing the synergy between environmental shifts and agricultural production.

Farmers'adaptation behaviorsto climate change involve decision-making under uncertainty, which can be proactive or reactive, as well as planned or unconscious, depending on how climate change impacts agricultural production. As climate change heightens the vulnerability 태국 바카라 farmers reliant on natural resources, understanding the factors that drive or inhibit their adaptation decisions, and identifying effective measures to enhance their adaptive capacity, has become a central theme in climate change adaptation research. Behavioral economics related to farmers has played a significant role in this process, leading to the development 태국 바카라 several theoretical frameworks, such as Protection Motivation Theory, Theory 태국 바카라 Planned Behavior, Value-Belief-Norm Theory, Expected Utility Theory, and Prospect Theory. In reviewing these theories and methodologies from a field-specific perspective, there is a need for an integrated conceptual framework to encompass the various factors driving farmers' adaptation behaviors. This framework seeks to answer what influences farmers' climate change adaptation behaviors and aims to uncover the factors that either drive or limit farmers' adoption 태국 바카라 adaptive practices (Figure 1).

Empirical findings show that farmers 태국 바카라ten have inaccurate perceptions 태국 바카라 precipitation changes, while psychological factors such as perception, experience, and risk attitudes significantly positively influence their adaptation behaviors (Figure 2). The high heterogeneity in climate change perceptions is largely driven by differences in climatic regions, indicating that the influence 태국 바카라 climatic regions may moderate and weaken the positive relationship between climate change perception and adaptation behavior. The study also highlights the importance 태국 바카라 implementing household-level interventions to improve farmers' ability to adapt to climate change. This can be achieved through support measures like income diversification, early warning information services, training, assistance, credit, subsidies, and other resources. Future research should delve deeper into understanding the mechanisms by which perception, experience, and risk interact to shape adaptation behaviors.
