Evaluating the relationship between climate variability and agricultural crops under indeterminacy

Abstract

This study investigates the climate impact on rice yield. It takes temperature and rain as indicator for climate variation on stages of growth of rice as independent variables and yield of rice as dependent variable. This study uses neutrosophic estimation and compares this with classical estimation. Estimated results show that climate variability is negatively impacting the rice yield and the crop is more vulnerable to variation in temperature than rain. Impact of climate variations on geographical regions is different which also highlights the priority territories which are more vulnerable to climate change. Neutrosophic estimation seems comparatively reliable and gives more information than classical estimation.
