The yield of main maize varieties and their response to climate change.
Resources, Conservation and Recycling The model established in this study can provide support for predicting the possible quantitative results of climate change on future changes in corn yield and mitigation strategies (such as variety selection, etc.
According to researcher Li Shaokun, the faster and faster global warming will have a negative impact on food production and become a major challenge facing food security in the world today
The research team used multi-year field test data at 42 test sites in typical corn ecological zones across the country to simulate the impact of climate factors on corn yield
When the average temperature and minimum temperature in the corn growing season increase by 1°C, the yield of corn kernels decreases by 0.
The research was funded by the "Thirteenth Five-Year" National Key Research and Development Program, the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the National Key Basic Research and Development Program, and the Science and Technology Innovation Project of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences
