      abstract = {Climate Change is an ever growing issue with a great  importance due to wide socio-economic effects. Agriculture  is the most climate sensitive economic sector that is  influenced both positively and negatively by climate  change. A change in temperature or precipitation could  cause a significant change in crops productivity and  yields. Different crop/bio-physical experts have been  making efforts to process the impact of climate on crop  yields through different crop modellings using input from  different global climate models. In this research, the  output of the crop models is used as a shock in the global  computable general equilibrium economic model to evaluate  the economic effects of climate change. Pakistan has two  crop seasons – Kharif and Rabi- therefore two major crops  i.e. Wheat and Rice have been chosen for this analysis. A  Baseline scenario, representing business as usual with no  change in climate, has been created using projections for  GDP, population, factor supplies, and required food  production. A counterfactual experiment has done using the  same GDP and population growth as in the baseline but with  addition of crop yield shocks from bio-physical models. A  comparison of these two experiments has shown the economic  effects of climate change by 2035.},
