Thanks to last month’s warmer-than-normal temperatures that sped up the growth of wheat crops across Ohio, this week’s cold snap could result in injury for some of those plants. ...
The data was then compared with climate and temperature information for the area to examine the effect on growth and development of the crop. The study, published in the journal Global Change Biology, found that warmer temperatures reduced crop yield. Greater warmth during the reproductive and ripening periods, in particular, ...
“A projected loss of 10 to 40 percent will occur in crop production by 2100,” he said. A rise of one degree Celsius could reduce yields of major food crops by three to seven per cent in India, with higher losses during the winter (rabi) crop season, he added. ...
Under the CSIRO Plant Industry Summer Student Program, 17 students are engaged in a range of important agricultural research projects designed to discover, for example, how high temperatures affect crops and the genetic bases of crop development. The Program, which runs from 6 December to 11 February, provides university students with real ...
Climate change is already affecting the Earth’s temperature, precipitation, and hydrological cycles, with detrimental impacts on U.S. and global agricultural systems. ...
They entered parameters for crop growth — such as rainfall, soil type and crop type in a particular region — into a computer program, the Agricultural Production System Stimulator, to model the impact of increased temperatures on crop production across Africa. They found that climate change need not negatively affect ...
Emissions are influenced by conditions such as soil type, crop, temperature and water levels in the soil. Research, conducted under the EU NitroEurope project1, investigated the effect of both types of fertiliser on a non-irrigated crop under Mediterranean conditions. ...
