The Effect of Global Warming on Changes in the Labor Structure of the Agricultural Sector

Faradiba Faradiba

Abstract


The issue of global warming is an important agenda for all countries in the world. Global warming will have a negative impact on human life in the future if it is not properly anticipated. One of the threats from global warming is the agricultural sector. The agricultural sector plays an important role in human life. Because the agricultural sector is considered unpromising, the knock-on effect is a lack of public interest in developing the agricultural sector. Therefore, this research aims to determine changes in temperature in various countries on the percentage of workers in the agricultural sector. The data used in this research is temperature data from Climatewatch and also data on the percentage of agricultural sector workers from the World Bank. The method used in this research is linear regression. The results of this research indicate that changes in temperature have an impact on people's interest in working as farmers. Apart from that, the issue of shifting people's livelihoods out of the agricultural sector occurs for both male and female farmers. For this reason, an extra role is needed from the Government to encourage public interest through boosters in the agricultural sector so that public interest in the agricultural sector and agricultural production remains well maintained.
