Abstract: Food remains the most critical need for human survival. This is because of its importance in supporting livelihoods and healthy conditions of individuals in the society. This study therefore examined the impact of climate change on food production in Nigeria for the period, 1990-2020. Time series data on agricultural output was used as a proxy for food production which was the dependent variable, while the independent variables were annual temperature and annual rainfall. The data used for the study was collected from Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin. OLS technique was employed for data analysis. The result of the analysis showed that annual temperature and rainfall had significant impact on food production in Nigeria. The study also discovered that increase in the amount of annual temperature led to fall in food production while increase in the amount of annual rainfall led to increase in food production in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study recommended that government should set some agencies that should be responsible for the measuring of the degree of hotness and coldness for food production and also to determine the amount of annual temperature which could be used to improve food production in Nigeria. Government should also encourage sensitization of farmers on the importance of weather forecast in order to predict the amount of annual rainfall that could yield bumper harvest that could increase food production in Nigeria.
Keywords: climate change, food production, temperature and rainfall
