Abstract
This study aims to analyze the impact of climate change on the agricultural sector and develop adaptation strategies to overcome the impact of climate change on the agricultural sector. The basic method used is descriptive analytical. The location of the study was taken by purposive sampling by selecting Pandak District as one of the agricultural areas that has a large area and high food crop productivity in Bantul Regency. The analytical method used to analyze and examine the adaptation strategies carried out by farmers as an effort to minimize the negative impact of climate change on farming used quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis techniques. The results of the study showed that the impact of climate change causes a decrease in agricultural production and even crop failure. The main factors of climate change are rainfall patterns, extreme climate events (floods and droughts), and plant pests. Farmers implement adaptation strategies in the form of using superior plants, arranging planting times and patterns, and water management technology.
