Abstract
This study quantifies the impact of extreme weather events (drought and high-intensity rainfall) on potato yields in the Netherlands between 2015 and 2020 using an observational dataset and a causal matching strategy. Results show that these weather extremes explain 98% of the year-to-year yield differences, with high-intensity rainfall causing a 36% yield reduction and drought causing a 13% reduction. Yield variability is significant across fields, highlighting the need for adaptation strategies.
