Abstract

Due to be in disaster prone geographic area because of climate change, Bangladesh is one of the vulnerable largest deltas in the world. Agriculture is the main influential factor for Bangladesh economy. Jute and various vendible of jute are good sources of earning foreign currency of Bangladesh. But in the last decades it seems that our Agricultural sector especially coastal belt has been affected drastically by climate change. It is to scientifically assess the vulnerability of the golden fibre of Bangladesh; Jute production due to the unfavourable climatic variables fluctuation in South Western coastal belt, a original field research has been done considering the influential climatic factors of temperature, rainfall, humidity, sun shine hours and sea level pressure of last 30 years (1981-2011) and their impacts on the production of Jute. During the producing season of Jute, it has been increased the maximum and average temperature. And it was about unchanged pattern of sea-level pressure of here but the most important factor for production rainfall has been increased by 53, 12 and 142 mm in Khulna, Satkhira, Bagerhat respectively. The production proclivity of the jute shows most of the time as increasing except in Khulna in 2009 it was affected by demolishing natural disaster; AILA, so the production was drastically felled down in 2009.
