This article identifies the impacts of climate change on livestock production in Mexico. Data from 28,337 livestock production units is used to estimate a Ricardian model and simulate the effects of climate change on net income per head. The main results suggest that climate change could reduce net income between -13.42 and -16.87% in 2041-2060 and between -14.42 and -33.83% in 2081-2100. Furthermore, small, less diversified producers appear to be the most vulnerable to climate change.
