Abstract: The study aims to know the effect of the climate change determinants on the agricultural productivity in western Uttar Pradesh. The descriptive as well as exploratory research design was used. Preliminary pilot study was performed on the 44 samples. The Cronbach alpha, Bartlet test of significance, KMO test used under scale development and tools standardization for scale reliability and validity of the questionnaire. The sample size of this study was 484. The correlation and regression analysis were used to check the cause-and-effect relationship between ten independent variables (Temperature, Rainfall, Snowfall, Water Balance, Water Quality, Drought, Flood, Land Quality, CO2 Emission, and Fuel Consumption) and one dependent variable (Agricultural Productivity). The nonprobability snowball sampling technique was used in this study.  The empirical results reveal that by increasing one unit in the Temperature, Rainfall, Water Balance, Drought, Flood, CO2 Emission, Fuel Consumption, Snowfall there is a decrease in the Agricultural Productivity by -.137, -.091, -.245, -.013, -.473, -.035, -.459, and -.039 units respectively and by increasing one unit in the Water Quality, and Land Quality there is an increase of .375 and .131 units in the Agricultural Productivity in Western Uttar Pradesh.
