Аннотация: The article summarizes the results of the first stage of research into adaptation measures taken bythe rural population of mountain areas and the administration of Dagestan in response to climate change. Anassessment of climate change over the past 20 years in the Eastern Caucasus, with special attention to themountain areas of Dagestan, was carried out based on reanalysis data. It has been revealed that in the lastdecade in the midlands and highlands, annual and seasonal temperatures have increased significantly, andthe amount of annual and summer precipitation has begun to decrease; in general, the mountains of the EasternCaucasus and Dagestan, in particular, are becoming warmer and drier. Actions of mountain residents inthe crop production in response to warming and increasing moisture deficit are mainly aimed, as in manyother mountain rural regions of the world, at changing varieties and crops, growing intensive orchards thatare more tolerant to climate change, and expanding the range of terraced fruit crops. The unpredictability ofweather events has spurred the active growth of the greenhouse industry. New processes have intensifiedrelated industries and breeding science in Dagestan. The population’s initiatives are supported by the Programfor the Socioeconomic Development of Mountain Areas of the Republic of Dagestan for 2020–2025,which provides subsidies and grants, primarily for small farms and personal subsidiary plots. The aim of theProgram is not adaptation to climate change, but these measures are objectively manifested as support for theadaptation measures of the population. The mountain agricultural terraces of Dagestan are considered apotential resource for development of agriculture in the face of climate change, as well as possible tourismsites, representing elements of historical and cultural heritage and identity of local landscapes.
