Wheat production will decline with the rise in global temperature

Mumbai, Ta. September 28, 2019, Saturday

Climate change, which is occurring worldwide, may affect global wheat production in the coming years. Many wheat producing areas of the world - about 5 percent of the world - will face water shortage problems due to changing weather conditions.

Wheat production will decline due to water scarcity. Wheat provides about 20% of the total calories consumed by the human body.

However, the impact of this change in India will be minimal. China is the number one wheat producer in the world today. However, compared to India and China, Europe, Russia and the United States will not be so lucky, a study has found.

According to the Paris Agreement, countries in the world will be able to bring stability to climate change, even in 8% of the world's countries there will be severe water shortage. Currently 5 percent of countries are facing water scarcity, the study said.

The global wheat demand, which stood at 5.7 billion tonnes, is expected to rise to three billion tonnes by three. Wheat production can decrease by 5 to 8 percent with each increase in temperature by 4 degrees Celsius.
