Climate Trends and Global Crop Production Since 1980

TL;DR: It was found that in the cropping regions and growing seasons of most countries, with the important exception of the United States, temperature trends from 1980 to 2008 exceeded one standard deviation of historic year-to-year variability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prioritizing Climate Change Adaptation Needs for Food Security in 2030

TL;DR: Results indicate South Asia and Southern Africa as two regions that, without sufficient adaptation measures, will likely suffer negative impacts on several crops that are important to large food-insecure human populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global Scale Climate-Crop Yield Relationships and the Impacts of Recent Warming

TL;DR: The authors showed that simple measures of growing season temperatures and precipitation (spatial averages based on the locations of each crop) explain ∼30% or more of year-to-year variations in global average yields for the world's six most widely grown crops.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rising Temperatures Reduce Global Wheat Production

Senthold Asseng, +59 more
TL;DR: The authors systematically tested 30 different wheat crop models of the Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project against field experiments in which growing season mean temperatures ranged from 15 degrees C to 32 degrees C, including experiments with artificial heating.
Journal ArticleDOI

A meta-analysis of crop yield under climate change and adaptation

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive summary of studies that simulate climate change impacts on agriculture are reported in a meta-analysis, which suggests that aggregate yield losses should be expected for wheat, rice and maize in temperate and tropical growing regions even under relatively moderate levels of local warming.
