Washington, July 26 (ANI): A new study has revealed that climate change could lead to major crop production slowdown in the next 20 years. The experts from Stanford University and the National Center for Atmospheric Research found that the odds of a major production slowdown of wheat and corn, even with a warming climate, were not very high. But the risk was about 20 times more significant than it would be without global warming, and it might require planning by organizations that were affected by international food availability and price. David Lobell, Stanford professor, said that whether the climate change would threaten food supply over a 10- or 20-year period largely depends on how fast the Earth warms and they can’t predict the pace of warming very precisely.
