- Observation Extrapolated trends indicate crop production will increase 106% by 2050.
- Observation The projected production increase includes 31% area expansion.
- Recommendation Available uncropped land, double cropping and relay intercropping could enable area expansion.
- Recommendation Authors recommend considering machinery systems to reduce compaction risk.
- Observation Proposed changes could more than double food production by 2050 relative to 2005.
