Understanding concurrent drought events in global main croplands is crucially important for food security, effective adaptation to climate change and human well-being. Yet, there is a lack...
The response of China's rice yield to climate change is crucial for ensuring food security for China and the globe. However, previous studies have focused on the impact of climate change...
While China has transformed its economy over recent decades, challenges such as climate change and land degradation have continued to impact its agriculture...
Earth's water resources are critical for supporting livelihoods and food security but are being increasingly overexploited to support global agriculture. Diversifying cropping systems could...
Small farms are the mainstay of maize production in China. Its productivity is relatively low despite large farm inputs and the associated environmental footprints. Here, we...
Achieving food-system sustainability is a multidimensional challenge. In China, a doubling of crop production since 1990 has compromised other dimensions of sustainability. Although the country is promoting various interventions...
In 2013, the Communist Party of China decided to partially relax its self-sufficiency targets for grain, historically first recognizing moderate imports as a policy option for ensuring food...
To address challenges associated with climate change, population growth and decline in international trade linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, determining whether national crop production can meet...
Narrowing the yield gap is a crucial way to increase grain production without increasing cultivated land to meet the growing demand for food and nutrients. Although estimation of yield...
