Impacts of climate change on rice production in Africa and causes of simulated yield changes [PDF]
, 2019 This study is the first of its kind to quantify possible effects of climate change on rice production in Africa. We simulated impacts on rice in irrigated systems (dry season and wet season) and rainfed systems (upland and lowland).
