The latest research shows that climate change is changing the production of the world's top
crops
with major negative effects on Europe, South Africa and
Oplat
and mixed results in Asia, North America and Central America, according to Western media.
The study, published by the University of Minnesota, the University of Oxford and the University of Copenhagen, was published in the American journal Public Library of Science, the website of Spain's Albessai newspaper reported on June 4.
the world's top 10 major crops include barley, cassava, corn, oil palm, rape, rice, sorghum, soybeans, sugar cane and wheat. These crops provide 83% of the total heat that all crops provide to humans.
found that climate change has led to significant changes in the yields of the top 10 crops. Different crop conditions, such as oil palm production, decreased by 13.4 per cent, while soybeans increased by 3.5 per cent. Overall, the top ten crops provide an average of about 1% less heat to humans.
the study also showed that the impact of climate change on world food production was mainly negative in Europe, South Africa and Australia, while in Latin America it was generally positive and mixed in Asia, North and Central America. Moreover, like some wealthy industrialized countries in Western Europe, crop yields are declining year by year in half of the countries that have not yet achieved food security.
, climate change in recent years has led to increased crop yields in some parts of the Midwest.
, lead author of the study and an environmentalist at the University of Minnesota, said: "There are winners and losers, and food security is deteriorating in some countries," the report said. "The school's global statistical database has been used to monitor how global crop yields change over time.
results point to the areas and crops most at risk, and those working to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals will focus on those areas and crops to eliminate hunger and mitigate the effects of climate change. Liu Lifei.
