3.4 Model
In this analysis, a multi-regression model has been used.Model selection
is based on the data related to development of sugarcane and climate
impacts and these data are cross-sectional. This study aims to find
issues which create obstacles for farmers in Sindhby testing the
relationship among variables to determine the specific factors. In the
survey, the respondents were rated according to their experiences
regarding climate change issues. In contrast, their rating about the
dependent variable reflects their acceptance of the current issue of
sugarcane production. This work does not include unknown parameters, so
OLS and related regression analysis techniques have been omitted from
this study (Schlenker and Roberts 2006). There are several econometric
models and each one has its own use and importance in forecastingthe
relationship or cause and effect between variables to assist decision
making regarding future. Cross-sectional data are obtained through a
survey process, and these are new data acquiredas per research
requirements. The standard formula for an econometric data analysis in
this study is given below:
