e0“in some important rainfed production areas where precipitation was projected to decrease, such as the Kansas and Oklahoma Bread Basket regions under the Canadian Centre Climate Model scenario, climate change resulted in significant reductions of grain yield (-30 to -40%)”

- Observation Earlier aggregated simulations showed an increase in overall US agricultural output under climate change.
- Association Positive simulated yields largely depended on projected precipitation increases.
- Intervention effect In those rainfed areas, climate change increased year-to-year grain-yield variability.
