- Abstract
- This chapter addresses the biophysical dimension of adaptation. A framework is developed and
applied to evaluate options for adaptation in different and relevant Italian agricultural cropping
systems. Adaptation options rely on the identification of alternate cultivars optimally adapted to
expected climate conditions, building on crops' intraspecific biodiversity. The aim is to remove or at
least reduce the vulnerability of current production systems by identifying alternate cultivars
optimally adapted to expected climate conditions, without altering the pattern of current species
and production systems.
A new approach is proposed to (i) evaluate indicators of expected thermal and hydrologic
conditions within a specific landscape and production system, (ii) identify the cultivar-specific
thermal and hydrologic requirements for the optimal growth of a set of cultivars, and (iii) identify
as options for adaptation the cultivars for which expected climate conditions match the climatic
requirements. A robust methodology is provided to assess adaptive capacity, relying on mechanistic
simulation models and on the identification of cultivar-specific climatic conditions required for
optimal development and yield.
The approach is demonstrated through three case studies on (a) rainfed agriculture, (b) irrigated
herbaceous crops, and (c) irrigated fruit crops. For rainfed agriculture, we have identified cultivars
adapted to climate predicted for the period 2021-2050. For irrigated crops, we have evaluated
adaptability for irrigation schedules ranging from optimal to severely reduced water depths. Options
for adaptations of herbaceous and fruit crops have been identified as a combination of cultivars and
irrigation schedules. (literal)
