Abstract
This paper examines adaptation methods and criteria in the agricultural sector to address climate change. The primary aim of this review study is to conduct a comparative analysis of various adaptation methods and evaluate the criteria influencing the selection and implementation of each method. The methods reviewed include Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA), Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA), Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (CEA), and Network-Based Approaches. Each of these methods is assessed from environmental, economic, social, and technical perspectives. The results of this study indicate that selecting an appropriate method for adapting to climate change in agriculture requires considering multiple criteria and conducting comprehensive analyses. The paper also emphasizes the importance of investing in innovative technologies, educating farmers, and fostering international cooperation to develop effective strategies for combating climate change and maintaining the sustainability of the agricultural sector. The findings of this study can assist decision-makers and farmers in choosing the best adaptation strategies and optimizing resources.
