Can agriculture adapt to climate change?

Can agriculture adapt to climate change

Like every year, the largest farm in France is in Paris… until March 5, 2023, it’s the International Agricultural Show. If the consequences of the war in Ukraine are in everyone’s mind, it is the lack of water in the middle of winter that worries the French, including many farmers. Drought, late frost, early heat wave, hail: farmers are exposed to increasingly intense climatic pressures. How can French agriculture adapt to climate change?
