Why do scientists expect crop yields to decrease when the crops seem to thrive in a warmer and wetter climate?
Any hypothesis that resolves this paradox must explain why crop yields are expected to decrease over the coming century. It may be a consequence of a climate that is consistently warmer and more humid, or it may be unrelated to climate.
