    "There is evidence"....it's all computer models predicting future with data, algorithms that were installed for a desired outcome. You got ZERO evidence.

      Climate change is impacting yields but weather is still variable. So yes there will be good years and bad years.

      Ask you buddies in south, some who have had several years of drought and a severe water shortage whether they think a warmer dryer climate will solve their problems?
      Aren't you the same poster who keeps lecturing about not cherry picking small anecdotal examples? About needing large data sets over long periods of time?
      And now, you single out one small region of almost desert in Southern Alberta as representative of climate change, meanwhile the rest of the world on average raised the biggest crop ever.
      As I've said before, if not for hypocrisy, you wouldn't have any standards.

      At some point you might want to reconsider the models, and check out the real world evidence that more CO2 and warmer temperatures might actually be beneficial for any organism that performs photosynthesis.
      It's that science concept you keep talking about.

        I am not cherry picking. Climate is measured over 30 years. And its getting dryer and warmer.

        Did you ask your buddies in south, some who have had several years of drought and a severe water shortage whether they think a warmer dryer climate will solve their problems?

          You are just making up data now. According to the IPCC:
          Global annual land mean precipitation showed an... upward trend over the 20th century of approximately 1.1 mm per decade​
          According to the EPA:
          Since 1901, global precipitation has increased at an average rate of 0.04 inches per decade, while precipitation in the contiguous 48 states has increased at a rate of 0.20 inches per decade.

          Yet you drone on and on about providing credible sources.

          Then you say you are not cherry picking, then proceeded to cherry pick an area representing 0.013% of earths surface ( Southern Alberta from Calgary to the borders).
          And "several years" when you correctly state that climate is measured over 30 years.

          Again I ask, are there no adults supervising you who could intervene before you make a fool of yourself every time you post?​

              If you search;

              [url]https://www.grainews.ca/columns/where-the-wheat-was/#:~:text=COLUMNS-,Where%20the%20wheat%20was,-Let%27s%20track%2085[/url]

              Les Henry has a recent column about long term crop yields.

              There is a tab in there that says "This is the link" that takes you to a database that gives individual RM yields for Sask.

              Interesting to see how yields rose in in increments.

              Chuck has offered to debate Les on the effects of the climate emergency on crop yields.

              He says Les is not qualified as he is not a climate scientist.

                Increase in wheat yields look just like the increase in CO2. In spite of catastrophic global warming occurring at the same time.
                Probably just a coincidence.

                  Interesting data.
                  Not only are the yields much higher, the lows are higher. Lows are higher than the highs prior to the emergence of significant man made CO2?

                    So increased yields have nothing to do with increasing fertilizer applications and improved agronomy and varieties? its all due to CO2 levels?

                    Better tell your southern Alberta neighbors that a warmer and dryer climate with more weather extremes will be completely offset by increasing yields because of higher CO2 levels!

                    I can't wait to hear what they say!

                      Sorry if for not presenting that very well Chuck.
                      For sure it"s all about impressive gains provided by what was originally called the green revolution.
                      You can see on the yield charts where production stepped up as new improved practices like reduced tillage and higher fertility were adopted.
                      All about making better use of the land and climate we have to work with.
                      But I see no sign of a climate emergency in that data.
