We calibrated the LINGRA-N model using the minimization of RMSE, and proceeded to evaluate its performance. We simulated herbage dry matter yield of cock's foot (Dactylis glomerata L.) and perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in Jablje in the period 1998–2013, and multiplespecies grassland in Ljubljana (S72) in 1974–1993.

Changes in agricultural droughts were investigated using simulations of soil water deficit (SWD) and actual evapotranspiration (ETA) from a distributed semi-empirical soil water balance model – swbEWA. Using the Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analysis and the Pearson correlation coefficients we showed that large-scale agricultural droughts are influenced by the recurrence of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and by the atmospheric blocking.

Review of the work done on adaptation and mitigation to climate change in agriculture were done. Some projections for climate change at the global level were showed. Their importance for Slovenia and Slovenian agriculture in the future were explained.
