The objective of this paper is to analyse the effect of climate change on economic growth through the agriculture channel in Niger. The method of analysis used is the autoregressive lag model (ARDL). From the results, temperature does not appear to affect long term economic growth through the agricultural production channel. This can be explained by the adaptation measures taken by farmers, which are transmitted from generation to generation.
