Abstract: Abstract This paper investigates the effectiveness of climate adaptation measures in countering climate risk damage. Concerns about global warming are currently attracting interest from global policy makers and the adaptation is central to the scientific debate. In this context, we provide a methodology framework implemented in LIFE project “ADapation in Agriculture” for costs and benefits assessment of adaptation measures to climate change and their economic and environmental effects at the farm-level in Italy. An exemplary estimation model based on entity of damage avoided deriving by adverse climatic events with the climate adaptation measures adoption is provided. The use methodology approach could be to support farmers in choosing to adoption of appropriate climate adaptation measures. Our findings contribute to identify the specific adaptation measures to which farmers will be able to access. Our challenge is to outline specific measures for the agricultural sector, to counteract impacts of climate change at local level.
