Outlook of Agricultural Sector in the Face of Changing Global Climate: The Case of Nigeria

Abstract: The dependence of Nigeria's agricultural sector on climate, in the face of changing global climatic pattern, poses a clear danger to her economic aspiration. This paper therefore discusses the vulnerability of agricultural sector to the problem of climate change in Nigeria. The possible adaptation and mitigation strategies that could surmount the negative impact of climate change is also highlighted. Some of the findings reveal that the Coastal areas and Nigeria's northern food belt are the most vulnerable. Ob… Show more

“…LHV value is about from 35 MJ/m 3 to 37.2 MJ/m 3 [28], [33], [34];  is the capacity factor of the entire recovered CH4 combustion process to generate energy source, the common value is roughly 85% [28], [35];  is the electricity generation efficiency of the gas turbine engine, and is given a range of 30 -35% [32], [36];  is the conversion factor from MJ to kWh, and  value is taken as 3.6 [28], [29]. The energy plant size from captured CH4 gas of landfill (LFGTE(size)) assuming it is able to operate throughout the year is calculated in kW or MW as Eq.…”
