Review on the Effect of Climate Change on Crop Yield

Alemu Wegu, Abowerk Mamo, Isreal Zewide

Abstract


Climate change is a universal encounter having a substantial probable to modify crop yields global. Thus, the purpose of crop yield is important in the prospect of food security for agro-economic regions. Therefore, this reviews focus on the effect of climate change on crop yield. Changes in annual rainfall, average temperatures, global increase of atmospheric CO2 and fluctuation in sea levels can reduce crop yield. The climate changes affect the existing cultivating areas due to spontaneous rainfall, high air temperature, increase in soil temperature, and so on.
