Nepal lies near the northern limits of tropies in the

top of the Himalayas and Hence it is more

vulnerable to climate change change. It has wide
range of climatic variation like tropical heat with
high humidity in summer especially in terai the
southern plains and colder, dry continental and
alpine winter climate through the middle and
northern mountain sections . Such diversity reflects
in variation in temperature and ppt. Thus climate
change is a real threat to the lives as it largely affects
water resources , agriculture, free water habits,
vegetation and forests. At the same time snow
melting ang geological processes such as: Landslide,
desertification and floods are regular phenomenon.
The delayed monsoon has already
been affecting wheat plant and also its yield
subsequently. It is worth examining if this has any
reletion with the changing climate scenario.
Global average temperature has increased , ice sheet
has decreased and sealevel has risen. Such climativ
variations are projected to have significant impact on
AG along with wheat production . Many researchers
and reports have proved that the warming of climate
system is now unequivocal.
Temperature increase is likely to reduce
wheat production. Various researchers shows that
yield increases different according to the wheat
cultivation and shows increase in temperature upto
certain degree create positive impact on high
altitudeand negative impact on low altitude . Similar
to temperature, change in ppt also have mixed
impact on global wheat production . Increased level
of ppt and fertilization have positive impact on
wheat grain produced.
Wheat serves as a first source of
protein and 2nd source of calories in the diet of
consumers in dev countries. It provides 21% & 20%
of food calories and protein respectively for more
than 5 billion people living in 94 developing
countries.
1. Several complaints have been made by the
farmers over the year about increasing
difficulty to plant wheat due to delayed
monsoon & factors including population
growth, market, deforestation &desertification
which has already threatened food security in
Nepal.
2. Some scientists also believe that due to rising
o2 gas, it promotes growth and if it doubles
wheat production will increase by 40%.
3. The temperature and wheat net revenues are
also positively associated but as a decreasing
rate , as temperature increases wheat yield
increases but upto a certain threshold level
only.
4. The precipitation and net revenue from wheat
are also positively associated but not very
significantly , in a decreasing rate.
5. If the temperature & ppt both increases.
