Climate change can make weather patterns less predictable. Farmers' decisions regarding what crops to plant and when to grow them are impacted by uncertainty about monsoonal changes, which lowers productivity.

Days with severe heat or floods tend to have reduced labour productivity, which lowers industrial yields, lowers exports and lowers national income.
