Overview • Food Security and climate change results from IMPACT • How we got them • How do we compare with others • Should you believe any of us Page 2
Food Security and Climate Change Results Nelson, Gerald C., Mark W. Rosegrant, et al. 2010. Food Security, Farming, and Climate Change to 2050: Scenarios, Results, Policy Options. Washington, D.C.: International Food Policy Research Institute. Page 3
Food security challenges are unprecedented • Many more people in developing countries • Between 2000 and 2050, 50 percent globally; almost all in developing countries • With higher incomes comes more demand for quantity and quality • Climate change – a threat multiplier with uncertain outcomes • Reduced productivity of existing varieties and cropping systems Page 4
Income and population growth drive prices higher(price increase (%), 2010 – 2050, Baseline economy and demography) Page 5 Nelson et al, 2010
Climate change increases prices even more(price increase (%), 2010 – 2050, Baseline economy and demography) Minimum and maximum effect from four climate scenarios Page 6 Nelson et al, 2010
Developed Country, Change in Net Exports of Cereals, 2010-2050 (million mt) With perfect mitigation, DC net cereal exports change little between 2010 and 2050. With climate change, DC net cereal exports grow less or decline. Page 7
Countries with more than 1 million hectares of crop area increase, 2010–2050 (000 hectares) Page 8
Countries with more than 1 million ha of crop area decline, 2010–2050 (000 hectares) Page 9

Current process for incorporating climate effects on crops into IMPACT
GCM/SRES scenario climate results are down scaled to 0.5 degree/5 minute resolution 2000 June average minimum temperature 2050 CSIRO/A2 June average rainfall
Planting months are chosen based on current and future climate conditions 2000 Rainfed planting month 2050 CSIRO/A2 Rainfed planting month
Soils are represented by 27 generic soil profiles based on the harmonized FAO soil datasets Soil profiles color coded by location
The remaining inputs fall under management practices Choice of crop variety Rainfed versus irrigated sources of water Planting densities, row spacing, and transplanting details Fertilizer types, amounts, and application dates
DSSAT generates projected yields for each location 2000 Rainfed maize yield 2050 CSIRO/A2 Rainfed maize yield
SPAM 2000 areas are used to weight the projected yields when aggregating to FPUs Rainfed maize physical area in 2000
FPU boundaries and crop model pixel results 2000 Rainfed maize yield with FPU boundaries in South Asia
Projected yields from DSSAT are aggregated up to the FPU-level for use in IMPACT By crop and rainfed/irrigated... Find total SPAM area within FPU Find total production (SPAM area × DSSAT yield) within FPU Compute area-weighted-average yield as total production / total area

How do we compare with others: ComparingIMPACT, ENVISAGE, LEITAP Page 31
Alternate Perspectives on Price Scenarios (perfect mitigation), 2004-2050 IMPACT has substantially greater price increases Page 32
Alternate perspectives on agricultural area changes, 2004-2050 Page 33
IMPACT Area Response, at FPU Level Atni = crop area α = crop area intercept PStni = producer price ε = area price elasticity WATtni = water stress = exogenous area growth rate
Selected CGE Area Supply Functions • Envisage (World Bank/FAO) • LEITAP (Wageningen) • - Asymptote • Ɛ - Price elasticity Page 35
Aggregate land supply parameters for ENVISAGE and LEITAP Ratio of all land rated very suitable, suitable, moderately suitable land and marginally suitable land to actual arable land in use Page 36

What is needed? • Regular observations • Observations year after year • Repeated observations • Multiple observations within a year and across years • Appropriate spatial resolution • Similar to field size • Discrimination • Minimum spectral frequencies to detect agricultural and natural resource change Page 46
