Author(s): BEVITORI, R.; GHINI, R.
Summary: Rice production currently plays an essential role in feeding the world?s population and will continue to be in the future, because rice is the most important global staple food in many countries. The production of rice, along with other agricultural crops, will be impacted by climate change. There is still great uncertainty about how climatic and atmospheric changes will affect the future productivity of food crops. Major future impacts of climate change are expected on food security and agricultural incomes, including shifts in production areas across the world.
