Climate change poses a threat to food security. This threat was first recognised primarily through the direct impact of climate on crop yields. However, the relatively simple framing of climate altering yields and, by implication the availability of food, captures only a small part of the problem.

CGIAR Climate's insight:

As climate change poses a threat to food security, climate adaptation strategies in agriculture are highly important. The authors, Andy Challinor and Sonja Vermeulen from CCAFS, highlight the importance of climate-smart agriculture for a food secure future.
