The deleterious effects of rising temperatures on agriculture and the security of food are legion.
Food supplies in large areas of the globe are at high risk of collapsing and those countries most dependent on agriculture are typically of heightened sensitivity to climate change.

These problems are compounded by political sensitivity to the changing agricultural business environment, frequently resulting in economic upheaval.
