Assessment of the impact of climate change on paddy rice and consideration of necessary countermeasures
The Future of Rice Cultivation in KyotoAssessment of the impact of climate change on paddy rice and consideration of necessary countermeasures
We will analyze the effects of climate change on agriculture obtained from the questionnaire and interview surveys of farmers (Tango area) conducted in FY2022, and use them as basic facts for considering adaptation measures. Based on the results of the analysis, further analysis will be conducted while seeking opinions from relevant organizations, etc.
Through the implementation of Future Design by farmers, administrative officials, and academic researchers, we will study comprehensive adaptation measures in the agricultural sector, especially paddy rice in Kyoto.
*Future Design: A method to hold discussions from the standpoint of a “imaginary future person” to identify what needs to be done at the present time to reach an ideal future.
Predicted impact of heat on the health and culture of the residents and tourists in Kyoto
Learn more about imminent risksPredicted impact of heat on the health and culture of residents and tourists
By analyzing the cases of heat stroke in Kyoto, we will identify the relationship with climate change and predict the number of cases in the future based on weather data.
We will collect data about adaptation measures to prevent heat stroke, and examine how Kyoto can be a resilient through community system, tourism, and culture against future climate change.
