Uncertainty in future irrigation water demand and risk of crop failure for maize in Europe

Uncertainty in future irrigation water demand and risk of crop failure for maize in Europe

While crop models are widely used to assess the change in crop productivity with climate change, their skill in assessing irrigation water demand or the risk of crop failure in large area impact assessments is relatively unknown. The objective of this study is to investigate which aspects of modelin...
