Hmmm, given that the USDA is talking about crop yields falling 80% due to climate change, you'd think it's relevant... https://www.wsj.com/articles/usda-report-sees-dire-climate-change-impact-on-u-s-crops-11563917840 https://www.wsj.com/articles/usda-report-sees-dire-climate-c... > Midwest farmers are being punished by adverse weather this year. Extremely wet weather this spring left many unable to fully plant their crops, and now summertime heat could kill a sizable portion of the plants that managed to sprout. The USDA is still determining how many acres will be left unplanted as a result of this year’s tough weather, but estimates place unplanted acres as high as 15 million for corn—well above the 2013 record of 3.6 million corn acres. > Grain prices have risen since weather problems during the planting season began to surface in May. Corn futures on the Chicago Board of Trade have risen 16% since May 1, while soybean futures are up 3%. According to Mr. Crane-Droesch, the models used by the ERS show that farmers are in for more difficult springs as climate change gets more severe.
