Impact of Climate Change on Yields of Major Food Crops in India: Implications for Food Security
The study has analysed changes in climate variables, viz. temperature and rainfall during the period 1969-2005 and has assessed their impact on yields of important food crops. A significant rise was observed in mean monthly temperature, but more so during the post-rainy season. The changes in rainfall, however, were not as significant. While an increase in maximum temperature was found to have ...
متن کاملISPRS Archives XXXVIII-8/W3 Workshop Proceedings: Impact of Climate Change on Agriculture 100 IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON YIELDS OF MAJOR FOOD CROPS IN INDIA
The regional models of yield response to temperature (minimum, maximum and its diurnal range) and precipitation developed for meteorological (met) sub-divisions of India were used to study the impact of future climate change on major food crops viz. wheat, rice, potato and rapeseed-mustard. The area weighted averages of district-wise crop yield data were computed at met sub-division level for 1...
متن کاملImpacts of projected changes and variability in climatic data on major food crops yields in Rwanda
This paper investigated the response of major food crop yields namely beans,cassava, Irish potatoes, maize and sweet potatoes to ongoing changes in climate inRwanda. The projected daily precipitation and temperature data for the period2000-2050 used in this study were generated by stochastic weather generator(LARS-WG) from daily raw data for the period 1961 -2000. These data werecollected from ...

متن کاملClimate Change and Its Impact on the Yield of Major Food Crops: Evidence from Pakistan
Pakistan is vulnerable to climate change, and extreme climatic conditions are threatening food security. This study examines the effects of climate change (e.g., maximum temperature, minimum temperature, rainfall, relative humidity, and the sunshine) on the major crops of Pakistan (e.g., wheat, rice, maize, and sugarcane). The methods of feasible generalized least square (FGLS) and heteroscedas...
