What is the impact of climate warming on agricultural climate disasters?

The most important impact of climate warming on agriculture may be extreme weather conditions, such as drought, high temperature, flood, storm, tornado, hail, chilling injury and frost. It is believed that climate warming will increase tropical storms, which will have a great impact on agriculture in low latitudes, especially in coastal areas. Some people think that the rising temperature will continue to be hot, which will affect agricultural production, especially in tropical and subtropical regions. For example, the dry and hot wind in the main producing areas of winter wheat may greatly reduce wheat production. The heat damage of high temperature stress restricts crop production, affects the planting and yield of corn, soybean, sorghum and millet, and strongly inhibits the growth of rice and cotton. Under the influence of greenhouse effect, the high temperature heat damage will be aggravated, which will be a serious problem affecting agricultural production in China. With the temperature rising, the air exchange in the atmosphere is enhanced, the windy weather is increased, the frequency and intensity of rainstorm are enhanced, and soil erosion caused by wind erosion in some areas (loess plateau in China) is intensified, which further affects agricultural production. Studies have pointed out that rising temperature will lead to an increase in soil water consumption, especially in arid and semi-arid areas with low vegetation coverage, and droughts will occur more frequently, thus threatening the development of agriculture. The southward movement of monsoon rain belt in northern China may aggravate the drought hazard.
