Short summary
This paper examines the effects of climate change and drought on agricultural incomes in Spanish rural areas.

Among the impacts of droughts we focus on potential effects on income distribution. The study of the effects of abnormally dry periods is needed in order to perform an analysis of socio-economic aspects.
