Using new high-resolution simulations, researchers conclude that climate change made the Cape Town ‘Day Zero’ drought five to six times more likely and suggest extreme drought events could become common in southwestern South Africa by the end of the 21st century.

As agriculture in the United States evolves, it’s becoming more intensive and less complex. 

The UK’s supply of fruit and vegetables has become increasingly reliant on imports from countries vulnerable to climate change, according to a new study in Nature Food.

Increasing diversity in crop production benefits biodiversity without compromising crop yields, according to an international study comparing 42,000 examples of diversified and simplified agricultural practices.

A paper published in the journal Science reveals that, although reducing fossil fuel use is essential to meet global climate targets, those goals are out of reach unless the global food system is also transformed.

The study, published today in the journal Nature Communications, analysed changes in the geographical range of 16,919 species from 1700 to the present day.

Dust storms are relatively common in places like the Sahara Desert, but they also happen at high latitudes in places such as Alaska.

Satellite gravimetry data indicates the ongoing drought is the continent's second most intense since 2002.

Tropical fruit trees can improve health, reduce hunger, boost incomes and fight climate change. So why don’t we grow and eat more?

Ants have been farmers for tens of millions of years and successfully solved a riddle that we humans have yet to.
