Climate Change and Agricultural Yield in the Republic of Congo: An Analysis Using the ARDL Approach ()
ABSTRACT
The objective of this study is to analyze the effect
of temperature variations on agricultural yield in the Republic of Congo over a
period from 1990 to 2020. Following the estimation of the ARDL model, the
results of the estimation, in the short run, confirmed the hypothesis of a
negative and significant relationship between temperature rising and
agricultural yield in the Republic of Congo. In the long run, these effects
subside overtime, and subsequently improve agricultural yields. These results
allowed us to formulate economic policy implications for sustainable
agriculture, adapted to climate change, and climate change mitigation.
