The purpose of this study is to try to measure the impact of climate change caused by global warming on the regional economies with agriculture and the industries associated with agriculture. Using the interregional CGE model, we carried out scenario setting of a global warming simulation without adaptation technology. As a result, we found that climate change caused by global warming has different influences on the region, and it turns out that a regional economic gap is generated. In Hokkaido and Tohoku, production of rice due to global warming plays a positive role.
