The 'Extreme Heat and Agriculture' report, launched on Earth Day, highlights the significant threats that rising temperatures pose to agricultural productivity. The intensification of climate change is leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, increasingly endangering crop yields, food security, and the livelihoods of farmers globally. Traditional farming methods are becoming inadequate in the face of these climatic changes, with many staple crops highly vulnerable to temperature spikes that disrupt growth cycles and reduce overall yields. This issue is especially concerning in regions where agriculture is the main source of income and sustenance.
