Abstract
According to the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), changing climate is observed to have a negative impact on product yield in many parts of the world [1]. Changes in climate and soil conditions affect agricultural productivity through changes in production quantity and quality. Climate variability is responsible for about a third of the change in global crop yield [2]. Some studies draw attention to the negative impact of temperature increase on crop yield [3-5] and indicate that temperature increase has a more critical effect on agricultural production than the decrease in precipitation [6]. In addition, duration of sunshine, relative humidity and wind speed are also effective variables on crop yield [7].
