Neglecting rice milling yield and quality underestimates economic losses from high-temperature stress by Lyman, Nathaniel B., Jagadish, Krishna S.V., Nalley, L. Lanier, Dixon, Bruce L., Siebenmorgen, Terry

“…Recently published estimates show paddy yield reductions of up to 10% across the major rice-producing regions of South and Southeast Asia due to rising temperatures. The results of our study suggest that the often-cited 10% figure underestimates the economic implications of climate change for rice producers, thus potentially threatening future food security for global rice producers and consumers.…”
