Crop switching reduces agricultural losses from climate change in the United States by half under RCP 8.5

Switching and relocating crops could be a key pathway for agricultural adaptation to climate change. Here, Rising and Devineni use data-driven Bayesian modelling to estimate the potential for crop switching to mitigate climate impacts on US crop production under a high-emission scenario, showing considerable opportunities but also limitations.

GM crops reduce the use of pesticides, often increase yield, and now improve nitrogen use efficiency. This study and meta-analysis focused on rice, maize and wheat...if these three crops were planted using GM varieties worldwide, we would feed 800 million more people and use less nitrogen along the way.
