As we all know global warming is affecting the climate world over and the first casualty is nature and everything related to it. Therefore obviously food production and farming will be one of the main elements that is going to be affected and that is exactly what is happening. Of the many countries that are being affected by the green house effect, Australia is in the forefront, and the farmers there are having a tough time fighting the natural elements and keeping their livelihood alive. A new report by two University of Melbourne researchers paints a challenging picture for Australias agricultural sector, and the picture looks grim. The results can be seen or rather felt from the sunburned apples and the tasteless carrots that are the direct results of the climate change and as per the report it is only going to get worse in the decades to come. The research has examined the ways each of the countrys multiple climate regions will be affected by climate change through the examination of 55 food commodities, and concludes that in the coming years the quality of chicken, beef, and even kangaroo will suffer. Australia is already a dry country and the bush fires are a regular occurrence. But in the coming future the country is going to get hotter and drier, and therefore the challenges for the Australian farmers will increase tenfold. This challenge that Australia is already facing and will further face in the near future might present a road map for agriculture elsewhere as the climate of the earth gets warmer. Compared to the last century Australia has already seen its average temperatures increase more than 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit. According to a data released from CSIRO, Australias national scientific agency, along with the Bureau of Meteorology, if global emissions continue at the current way, Australia is expected to warm more than 9 F by 2090. And that is a frightening scenario not only for the farmers but for all of human race that inhabits Australia. There are limits to what farmers can do, even with adaptation, and like the proverbial canaries in a coal mine, many of the nations farmers will be tested. Crops such as chickpeas, walnuts and peaches will be directly affected by a hotter climate and their yield will be deeply hampered. Though, wheat farmers will endure as wheat can still grow even with shorter and lesser rainfalls, but still the quality will be affected and will result in poor class crop yield.
