Notes

The project, Impacts of Climate Change on Chinese
Agriculture, is a joint UK/China collaboration which
sought to understand how climate change will affect
rural China.
Phase I (2001–2004) examined the impact of climate
change on crop yields. Phase II (2005–2008) built
on this work to investigate the impacts of climate
change on national cereal production and the cereal
quantities available to each person in China to 2100.
This pamphlet gives an overview of the main findings of
Phase II relating to the impact of climate change on the
yields and production of three staple crops (rice, maize,
wheat) in China.
