Le GIEC [Groupe d'experts intergouvernemental sur l'évolution du climat] estime qu'un réchauffement modéré a un effet bénéfique sur le rendement des cultures et des pâturages dans les régions des latitudes moyennes et élevées, mais que même un léger réchauffement suffit à faire baisser les rendements dans les régions des basses latitudes et celles sujettes à des sécheresses saisonnières.
