This paper reviews and analyzes determinants of adaptive capacity, coping strategies and adaptation to climate change of farmers in developing countries, and determines difficulties applying these strategies. In developing countries, farmers apply a variety of strategies in response to climate change and variability, dependent on individual adaptive capacity which is determined based on their socio-economic characteristics and resources as well as characteristics of the institutional and technological conditions. It is concluded that the policies on climate adaptation need to be designed as an integral part of the development policy and adaptation to climate change should be included in all related sectors.
