Most staple food crops are expected to experience substantial production losses due to climate change, even when mitigation measures to limit the impact of climate change are considered, according to a study in nature. go.nature.com/4lxo2zN

Scientists and governments have long fretted over how climate change could affect agriculture. Could a new study hold the answers? econ.st/4kLmwK1

🌾“Losing breakfast for everyone on Earth” That’s the cost of 3°C of warming, even w/ adaptation. A new Nature Portfolio study by Climate Impact Lab supported by International Growth Centre, shows global crop yields drop 4.4% per °C. 📰 Covered by CNN Breaking News: edition.cnn.com/2025/06/18/cli… #FoodSecurity

Even if farmers change their agricultural practices in response to higher temperatures, five out of six staple crops will still suffer severe losses due to climate change. newscientist.com/article/248471…

Our new study is the 1st global analysis of climate change’s impact on staple crops to account for real-world adaptation measures taken by farmers, applying measurements to projections of ag damages. We find: those with the most to lose, lose the most: impactlab.org/research/impac…

Institute scholar Pedram Hassanzadeh of Data Science Institute tells EL PAÍS América that AI-based weather forecasting systems offer significant advantages, as they are "cheap, easy to develop, accurate, and fast models that also reduce electricity bills."

CROPS IN DECLINE BY 2050. June 2025 paper on crops Even with adaptation by 2050 Yields for all crops are below the zero baseline for all projections, except possibly no change for rice. That's a huge drop in global food production- soon. The crop models do not include pests

Understanding climate risks needs more than intuition — it needs data. At the #IndiaSummerFellowsProgram, Energy Policy Institute at UChicago’s Ashwin Rode shared how Climate Impact Lab uses data and models to estimate damages across sectors like labour, agriculture, and coasts, guiding smarter climate policy.

Despite farmers in #India adapting to climate stress by shifting sowing dates, using resilient seeds & irrigation, wheat yields, especially in key regions like the Indo‑Gangetic Plains, are projected to drop sharply. Climate Impact Lab Shagun Down To Earth tinyurl.com/ychb322e

A study co-authored by EPIC scholar Eyal Frank finds that by 2050, average daily milk production could be reduced by 4% as a result of worsening heat stress. Learn more: climate.uchicago.edu/news/climate-c…

Tidal jacking and urban flooding are no longer future threats; they are today’s reality. At the #EPICIndiaDialogue, experts are discussing how rising sea levels and erratic rainfall are increasing mortality risks in India’s megacities, and how data-driven solutions can help.

E&E reports global droughts since 2023 expose growing crop failures. Climate Impact Lab finds 'Those with most to lose, lose most' - prosperous breadbaskets like the U.S. Midwest face severe impacts, while poorest regions also suffer substantially. impactlab.org/news-insights/…
