More Climate Change Nonsense

Wheat yields may fall by 6-18% by 2020 on climate change

PTI Mar 30, 2012, 06.50PM IST


NEW DELHI: The productivity of staple grain wheat could decline by upto 18% by 2020 due to adverse impact of climate change which is causing rise in temperature, Parliament was informed today.

So, how is that going?

India expects 5th straight record wheat crop - U.S. attache

"India expects a fifth record wheat crop in a row, 87.5 million tonnes, on higher planted area and optimal growing conditions in major growing areas to date.

Perhaps Parliament was informed incorrectly.  Temperatures are on the decline since 2002. Hopefully the wheat crop won't get destroyed by frost.
