These results help to define regions of concern and their
relative importance in the coming years. In this future climate the negative consequences for crop yields
and advancement of phenology relative to baseline are not uniform across crops and locations. Of the
crops studied – wheat, barley, lupin, canola and field pea – field pea is the most sensitive to the projected
future climate changes, and the ensemble median changes in field pea yield range from a decrease
of 12% to a decrease of 45%, depending on location.
