摘要：

This study reports the results of “action research” to identify and prioritize stakeholder driven,locally relevant response options to climate change. These response options comprise the basis oflocal action plans developed to address agricultural adaptations to climate change in threediverse agroecoystems: the Yaqui Valley in northwestern Mexico, the Mantaro Valley in centralPeru, and the western littoral regional of Uruguay. The study has three primary objectives. Thefirst is to develop and apply a pilot methodology for assessing agricultural vulnerability toclimate change and for formulating response strategies to inform private and public sectordecisions in the Latin America region. The second objective is to formulate recommendationsfor investments in each of the selected agro-ecosystems in a range of areas including agriculturaltechnology adaptation, infrastructure investments, public and private sectoral support activities,and institutional and policy changes. The final objective is to disseminate the study results in theLatin America region to help increase understanding of the impacts of climate change andalternative adaptation response strategies.
