INTRODUCTION
Climate change are long term change in the weather of any country. Just because of
climate change all the factors and community will impacted. Climate has to be change just
because of human activity, pollution and also by the natural process of earth. Also, are the
various reason behind the climate change that is sustainability of country, pollution and
population, global warming, changes in the rainfall patterns etc.
In this study will discuss the issue of climate change and its impact on the society and
agricultural people. In this will also explain the various reason of climate change and will discuss
solving these issues. According to this study, will explain the factors who are able to manage
changes in the climate. Also, will provide the outcome of factors. In this study will also present
the political and economic factors for the change in the climate and also discuss the factors for
address these issues.
MAIN BODY
In this study will take the issue of Climate change and its impact on livelihoods of
peoples life and also on those people who are completely depends on the agriculture. This issue
is related to the agriculture policies. Climate change is major problem of today world, it is raised
by the change in earth climate system. Climate change is directly impact the farmers and
agricultural people directly (Cathie, 2019). Farmers are facing issues such as decrease crop
manufacture, just because high rainfall. Also, impacted the agriculture just because of heavy or
extrema weather change such as bushfire and flooding. Winter also affect the crop and the
production of fruits and nuts. Just because of flooding all the crop will destroy and the
agriculture people have to face high dissatisfaction due to climate change. It will also impact the
production rate and climate change the profit earning ration of farmers.
Factors for solving Climate Change Problem:
There are some effective plans which are very beneficial for solving the climate change
problem of the farmers. These plans are:
Effective Planning: According to this step farmer have an idea about the climate and
environmental changes that will help to managing the loss of farmers. Farmer designs some
strategies that how will they save their crop by unfortunately climate change (Daugbjerg and
Feindt, 2017). With the help of this plan farmer become more productive towards their crops and

protect their crop. Because climate and environment are brought unplanned change but by the
effective planning and policies protecting the crop chances will increases.
Learn about government policies and plan: Government also design various policies and plan
for the those farmers whose crop goes destroyed just because of climate change. Those farmer
can take help from the government side. With the help of these policies farmers can feel strong
and also have developed some bright chances to again producing the crop. Government provides
facilities by which farmer can receive the amount of their damage crop. With the help of this
policy they earn some money to survive.
Outcomes:
The outcomes of those factors are beneficial for farmers and society people who are
facing the climate change problem. With the help of this factor's climate changes are solved and
farmers life can be improved. The outcomes are:
With the help of effectively planing the chances of destroying crop by the climate and
environment change is decrease. Because they have better plan and alternatives for solving the
problem who are raised just because of climate change. This plan also provide some
opportunities to the farmers to feel and stay motivated at the opposite time (Gibson, 2016). The
another outcome of this factor is farmers can achieve some cost to their waste crop. Because if in
case all the crop of farmers gonna waste and destroy than, the policies of government give them
chance to stay positive in these situations and also they can receive some money to survive in
these situations. Because all the crop goes destroyed and the farmers and their family needs some
support to survive in the society. With the help of those policies and factors it can be possible.
Political – Economy on Climate Change:
The Australia Government design the innovative, comprehensive and ambitious climate
change policy in 2011. The Australia is micro, huge improvement, emission intensive economy
and resource extraction and industry play a significant political and economic role. Political and
economic environment of Australia is also impacted by the climate change. Because frequent
changes in the climate impact the crop of farmers and most of the time crop will destroy because
unfair weather of country (Carey and et.al., 2016). That is the big reason behind the economy
goes down of the country. It is the major threat of Australia because it will impact the economic
system of country. Climate change of country also impact the political condition of Australia
because country government has to design the policies and strategies as per the agricultural

benefits and also as per the economic changes in the country. As per the guess of Australian
people it is examined that the property market of country goes down or will be destroyed nearly
in 2030 just because of extreme weather and climate changes in the country.
Efforts to Address Problem:
Policies Design: For the solving the problem of agricultural from the climate change government
and top authorities can design the policies which effective to solving the issues of farmers.
Government can design those policies and strategies by which farmer can earn some profit if
their crop destroy just because of flooding, bushfire and extrema winter. Australia's government
can design the policies who are protected the farmers and crop.
Pollution Control: The another policies for solve the problem of crop, agricultural and the
farmers. Government and society people have to focus on control pollution of country. Because
excessive pollution is also become the problem of climate change (Richards, Kjærnes and Vik,
2016). For controlling the constantly change in the environment government can design some
policies which are reduced the country pollution. With the help of those policies and program
climate will become more constant and that will also reduce the agricultural problem of farmers
of Australia.
Plantation: The another most effective remedies for solving the climate issue is the plantation.
By the use of effective planing of plantation country can mange their climate change. Because
plantation is very helpful for healthy environment and that will also help country to managing
their environment change. With help of plantation country can solve the problem of
environment.
Sustainability: Country can also enhance the sustainability of their natural resources and raw
materials. Because this is also needed for improving the climate of the country.
CONCLUSION
From the bases of above study it has been concluded that how climate change will impact
the society and agricultural system of the country. In this has been included the issues which will
take for this study and also elaborate the issue. In this study also included the factors for solving
the issue of climate change and also provided the outcomes which are come after the plying the
factors of managing the change. In this study has been also discussed the political – economic
factors on the climate change, in this discussed how climate change of country will impact on the

political and economic factors of country. Also, presented the factors for addressing the issue of
climate change in which will includes the plantation, pollution control, sustainability etc.
