Changing Climatic Conditions in Czechia Require Adaptation Measures in Agriculture

Original language description

Changes in climatic conditions increase risks associated with crop production in certain regions. Early detection of these changes enables the implementation of suitable adaptation measures in the local area, thereby stabilising agricultural production. Our analysis shows a significant shift in climatic conditions in Czechia between 1961 and 2020. We examined the changes in observed temperature conditions, precipitation distribution, drought occurrences, and frost incidents at a high resolution (0.5 x 0.5 km). The outputs show a significant increase in air temperatures and drought occurrence. Temperature totals above 5 degrees C in 1991-2020 were 15% higher than in 1961-1990. Furthermore, the relative change in totals above 10 degrees C was 26% after 1991. Over the last 30 years, drought incidence was four times more frequent than in 1961-1990, particularly in spring. In contrast, no significant changes in the distribution of precipitation occurred, and there was a slight decrease in the probability of frost during the growing season. Ongoing climate change brings warmer and drier conditions to higher-altitude regions in Czechia. Assessing climatic conditions on a global scale is less precise for relatively small and topographically diverse countries like Czechia due to coarse resolution. Therefore, a high-resolution analysis is more appropriate for these countries.
