This pilot study aims to evaluate the impact of climate change on the critical stages of crop growth. Data from agricultural stations in Greece were analyzed to assess the effects of climate change on the country’s agriculture, focusing on areas vulnerable to frost, as identified by the Hellenic Agricultural Insurance Organization. The study examined the differences in climate patterns between continental and coastal agricultural regions to determine which areas are more resilient to local climate change. The frequencies of frost events and government subsidies were analyzed. The significance of early spring temperatures and their potential consequences for plant growth and vegetation, if followed by late-frost incidents, was emphasized. The severity and impact of frost events vary depending on the location, vegetation type, and growth stage. The economic importance of frost-sensitive crops, like deciduous fruit trees, citrus, and vines, in Greek agriculture has been highlighted. Given the increasing frequency of adverse weather conditions, the study underscores the need for a resilient and sustainable approach to agriculture, focusing on prevention and adaptation to climate variations.
