Heat and drought are quietly hurting global crop yields

More frequent hot weather and droughts have dealt a significant blow to crop yields, especially for key grains like wheat, barley, and maize, according to a Stanford study published this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Volcanic eruptions linked to Neolithic 'sun stone' sacrifices in Denmark

About 4,900 years ago, a Neolithic people on the Danish island Bornholm sacrificed hundreds of stones engraved with sun and field motifs. Archaeologists and climate scientists from the University of Copenhagen can now show that these ritual sacrifices coincided with a large volcanic eruption that made the sun disappear throughout Northern Europe.

"120.000 years of plant evolution in just a few days"

Facing a growing word population, new technology is needed to ensure food security. Land and nutrients are limited and, therefore, researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are investigating how crop yields can be increased through continuous directed evolution. Project leader Dr. Ulschan Bathe explains the research goals, the expected effects on food security, and the role of the TUM campus in Weihenstephan.

New wheat varieties can contribute to food security

Researchers at TUM have discovered that new wheat varieties produce better crops with the same amount of fertilizer than those now used.

"Over the past few years, #Kashmir has witnessed a series of unusual weather events, including unseasonal rains, unpredictable temperature fluctuations, and an alarming increase in #ExtremeWeather incidents.

Unseasonal rains and temperature fluctuations have disrupted traditional agricultural calendars, affecting #CropYields and livelihoods."
