Climate change impacts on maize and dry bean yields of smallholder farmers in Honduras by MENDOZA, Carlos O., GIGENA, Rubén, DÍAZ-AMBRONA, Carlos G. H.

“…Results indicate large uncertainty in crop production from various GCM simulations and future emissions scenarios, but generally reduced yields at low elevations by 0 % to 22 % in suitable areas for crop production and increased yield at the cooler, on the hillsides, where farming needs to reduce soil erosion with conservation techniques. Further studies are needed to investigate strategies to reduce impacts and to explore adaptation tactics.…”
