Abstract :

در دهه­های اخیر، تغییر اقلیم و خشکسالی اثر زیادی بر نظام­های کشاورزی داشته و چالش­های جدی برای کشاورزان، خصوصاً کشاورزان خرده مالک، جهت سازگاری با این قبیل اثرات ایجاد کرده است. بخاطر اثرات نامطلوب وقایع شدید آب و هوایی بر جهان به ویژه در مناطق خشک، سازگاری بخش کشاورزی با این تغییرات بسیار حیاتی است. بنابراین کشاورزان بایستی تصمیمات پیچیده­ای برای کاهش اثرات نامطلوب تغییر اقلیم و کسب مزیت از فرصت­های پیش رو اتخاذ کنند. یکی از جنبه­های مهم برای سیاستگذارن جهت یاری رساندن به کشاورزان در راستای سازگاری با اثرات تغییر اقلیم مثل خشکسالی، فهم دقیق از فرآیند تصمیم­گیری کشاورزان و شناخت سازه­های تاثیرگذار بر تصمیمات شان در مواجه با تغییر اقلیم می­باشد. این مقاله در تلاش است تا چارچوبی مفهومی از سازه­های موثر بر الگوی تصمیم­گیری کشاورزان جهت سازگاری با تغییر اقلیم و ارتباط بین این سازه­ها فراهم آورد. باتوجه به نتایج بدست آمده، سازه­های اقتصادی، دانش، انگیزه­ها و اهداف، نتایج محسوس سازگاری، هنجارهای اجتماعی و شخصی، درک از تغییر اقلیم، درک از ریسک و موانع، نگرش نسبت به تغییر اقلیم، درک آتی از تغییر اقلیم، و ارزیابی ذهنی از تغییر اقلیم و فعالیت های سازگاری می­تواند تصمیم­گیری کشاورزان برای سازگاری با تغییر اقلیم را تحت تاثیر قرار دهد.
