terms of frequency and severity as impact of global warming. Based on farmer interview at the study sites, especially in Thailand and Lao PDR, the extreme climatic events may cause loss of rice productivity by average 30-50% from flood in moderate flood year. Figure 25: Impact of extreme climate event on rice cultivation 5.4 Assessment on vulnerability and adaptation of rain-fed farmer in the lower Mekong River region to climate change The rain-fed farmer in the lower Mekong River region could be among the most vulnerable group as their livelihood depends heavily on their annual on-farm productivity, particularly the rice cultivation, which is directly exposed to climate risk. In addition, household economic condition of these farmers is also considered to be in the poor group in the society, thus may cause them to have limited resource or other capacity to cope with impact of climate variability and change. Assessment of risk and vulnerability of the rain-fed farmer of the lower Mekong River region in this study was based on field interview to assess baseline livelihood condition and also baseline climate risk, which will be further used in the analysis on vulnerability to climate change impact. 5.4.1 Description of Scientific Methods and Data The assessment on risk and vulnerability to impact of climate change was based on change in rice productivity under different climate scenarios, which was used as a proxy of stress from future climate change, and analyzes its effect on the household livelihood condition according to the following diagram. <strong>Final</strong> technical report – AIACC AS07 54
Figure 26: Framework on the assessment of risk and vulnerability of rain-fed farmer to impact of climate change The main focus of this study covers 3 countries in lower Mekong River countries, the field survey to assess risk and vulnerability to climate impact of rain-fed farmer was focused in Lao PDR, Thailand and Viet Nam.
