Is it true that climate change reduces crop yields in the Mediterranean?
Unclear. Several peer-reviewed studies and a crop-science reference indicate that projected warming and drying reduce crop yields, but the specific findings cover wheat or irrigated areas in southern Portugal rather than the Mediterranean as a whole. The general reference describes a warming-to-lower-yield mechanism without a Mediterranean-specific quantification.
