Canada's agriculture may become globally vital due to climate change
Summary: As climate change progresses, Canada's agricultural sector may become increasingly vital globally. Rising temperatures could expand arable land by 4.2 million square kilometers, but productivity growth has slowed from 2% (1991-2010) to a projected 1% by 2030. Disruptions in food supply and increased food insecurity worldwide highlight the need for Canada to enhance climate resilience and productivity in agriculture to meet future demands.
