Abstract
This study aims to determine the extent to which climate change affects Algeria's agricultural production
and demonstrates that climate change threatens natural qualifications and deepens the vulnerability of
natural capacities and contributes with excellence to the mapping of agricultural productivity options.
The study found that measures taken to address the dangers of climate change are insufficient. Algeria
must adopt ecological agriculture with its various components by changing the social foundations of
agricultural policy. The small-scale agriculture sector must be at the heart of the commitments to adapt to
climate change in order to promote food sovereignty based on diversification of good agricultural
production, access to land and respect for the environment. To strengthen ecological and socio-economic
resilience to natural disasters, apply sustainable agricultural practices by adopting recycling and
diversifying production systems, selecting seeds that are most resistant to water stress and allocating
financial resources to protect natural inheritance and establish social values such as inclusiveness and
justice to create sustainable livelihoods.
