Record Agricultural Yields Should Allay Climate Fear

Climate change has aided in the proliferation of food crops

  • 2023 is expected to produce records for agricultural production in many countries
  • Wheat is a major source of calories, protein, and essential nutrients, and it is relatively easy to grow and store
  • After a year of supply uncertainty due to the war in Ukraine, wheat production is slated for a global increase
  • Crop yields in the 21st century have been increasing due to a combination of factors

Global Agricultural Progress

  • Global agriculture can adapt through genetically advanced food crop varieties that are resilient to extreme droughts and high temperatures
  • There is simply no reason for alarm over climate's impact on global food production either today, next year or in 100 years
  • In fact, climate is aiding crop growth and helping the world to feed growing populations
