据美国农业部的研究表明,在美国中部的一些大平原,通过减少作物耕作有助于保水和减少由于气候变化造成的产量损失。这个研究小组的负责人Laj Ahuja和农业研究局农业系统研究小组的其他研究人员将15年到17年的气候预估叠加在一起,观察未来作物产量可能受到的影响。此项工作得到美国农业部气候变化响应优选项目的支持。研究小组在农业研究局的科罗拉多州阿克伦城中部大平原研究站收集了田间数据。此项预估包 Research by the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows that some of the Great Plains in the central United States help conserve water and reduce output losses due to climate change by reducing crop production. Laj Ahuja, head of the research team, and other researchers from the Agricultural Systems Research Group of the Agricultural Research Institute have put together a 15-to-17-year climate forecast to see the likely impact on future crop yields. This work is supported by USDA’s Climate Change Response Optimization Project. The team collected field data from the Agricultural Research Service’s Great Plains Research Station in central Akron, Colorado. This estimate package
