Abstract: In order to seek the solution to deal with climate change issues, data set including acreage and yield of wheat, corn and rice from 1978 to 2008 in northeast China were collected. Based on these data, the author investigated the proportion of grain sown area and grain cultivation structural changes. The impact differences of climate changes on wheat yields, corn yields, and rice yields were analyzed by adopting linear regression analysis and comparative analysis methods. It was found that global warming drove the agricultural planting structure adaptive changes took place in northeast China. This was people’s initiative to tackle with climate change performance. This study also found that the adaptation of agriculture was due to the public initiative rather than the government program. The author proposed that since public participation tended to be the core strategy to cope with climate change, as part of the public the agricultural enterprises and rural residents should be deeper involved in setting cultivation schedules as responds to the adaption of climate change in northeast China. For the purpose of responding and adapting to climate change more effectively, transformation of agricultural facilities and promotion of new varieties of crops should be adopted properly.Keywords: Public Participation, Northeast China; Climate Change; Adaptation
