European Journal of Agronomy 16 (2002) 239 262 ReviewConsequences of climate change for European agriculturalproductivity, land use and policyJ rgen E. Olesena,*, Marco BindibaDepartment of Crop Physiology and Soil Science,Danish Institute of agricultural Sciences, ,DK-8830 Tjele,DenmarkbDepartment of Agronomy and land Management,Uni ersity of Florence, delle Cascine18,50144 Firenze,ItalyReceived 1 August 2001; received in revised form 8 January 2002; accepted 20 January 2002 AbstractThis paper reviews the knowledge on effects of climate change on agricultural productivity in Europe and theconsequences for policy and research. Warming is expected to lead to a northward expansion of suitable croppingareas and a reduction of the growing period of determinate crops ( cereals), but an increase for indeterminatecrops ( root crops). Increasing atmospheric CO2concentrations will directly enhance plant productivity and alsoincrease resource use northern areas climate change may produce positive effects on agriculture through introduction of new cropspecies and varieties, higher crop production and expansion of suitable areas for crop cultivation.
